8" single quillion bowie??

[deltablade]

Who makes a bowie style blade with a single quillion on the bottom, not the top? preferably carbon steel.

So, you're looking for a Bowie style knife with a single guard?

Do you want the guard to be brass or steel?

Down Under knives? I have seen reviews saying they come pretty dull though.

Not a conventional Bowie handle, but would the Ka-Bar Becker Bundock Bowie BK20 work?

Or you could also take a Bowie you already like and remove the top guard - easy with power tools, slower with a hacksaw & files & sandpaper. I've seen some really cool mods of the Western 49 pattern Bowie. Cold Steel has some options you could modify.

If you don’t mind going custom, I’d ask around in the custom makers forums around here. I’m sure plenty of talented folks could whip up a nice single quillon Bowie.

Tony Mont comes to mind for handmade Bowies with various guard/quilting configurations.

There's also Huntsman Knife Co. LLC. that makes some bowie style knives.

Look up Dunn Blades on Facebook, a custom maker from South Africa. He makes an awesome one.

I second Tony Mont and also wajgy has a special one available now! If you can wait a year or more, David Mary can make a modified Sparkling Smile for you.

Randall still makes the 1, 5, and a few wider Bowies with single guards in carbon if requested. Not too hard to trim the guard on lots of Cold Steel models also.
