SHOP CASE KNIVESThe Push Tang 8" Bowie Clip Point Blade Blank is a classic fixed blade foundation made for custom knife makers who want reliable performance and bold, traditional styling. Crafted in Pakistan from tough stainless steel, this blank delivers the size, strength, and versatility expected from a Bowie knife, while giving you the freedom to shape it into a tool that suits your needs in the field or on display.
At 7.875 inches long, the clip point blade is built for power and precision. The classic Bowie profile provides a strong, sharp tip for piercing and a wide, sweeping belly that’s ideal for slicing, chopping, and utility work. The plain edge allows for easy sharpening and clean cuts, whether you’re working through brush, preparing game, or tackling heavy-duty camp tasks. A .125-inch thick spine gives the blade added strength without weighing it down.
Measuring 12.375 inches overall, this blank strikes a balance between reach and control. The push tang design makes handle installation straightforward, especially for builders working with stacked leather, antler, or traditional hardwoods. A single rivet hole allows for additional handle security, giving you peace of mind whether the knife is used in the field or mounted for display.
A polished brass guard comes pre-fitted, adding both functional protection and timeless style. It keeps your hand safely behind the blade during tough use while giving the knife a refined, finished look. The design is ambidextrous, fitting comfortably in either hand, and offers a solid feel once the handle is completed.
Built by skilled makers in Pakistan, this blade blank reflects a tradition of dependable steelwork and a no-nonsense approach to knife building. Whether you're creating a working knife for the field or a personalized gift, the 8" Bowie Clip Point Blade Blank delivers on strength, simplicity, and style. Check out more knife parts with SMKW!
