TRADED It is with some extreme chaffing that I submit for your viewing pleasure a massive Siegle blade that I believe was originally named the Hoodlum. This piece of 1/4 inch thick, flat ground, 5160 is purpose built to be one of the most badass chopping implements I have ever handled. To my eyes the blade measure’s 10 3/4 inches from tip to scales and has an overall length of 17 inches. This hair popping sharp blade has never been used but does have some very mild discoloration on the left side of the blade and on the handle. Speaking of the handle this to me is probably one of the most comfortable micarta chopper handles that I have ever had the pleasure of swinging. While I’m not sure of this the blade appears to have a very attractive hamon line which would lead me to believe that this blade was differentially heat treated. The kydex is well made and has a very solid retention without being overly tight. If you have happened upon a dragon that needs to be killed the old fashioned way or simply want to chop down large trees with a knife the very reasonable price of $425 will get this beast shipped to your doorstep while I sob quietly in the background. As per usual if you have any questions please don’t hesitate to ask!
SOLD Bill Siegle Farm Hand Bowie. This is Bill's original description "The Farm Hand Bowie wears green canvas Micarta scales with brass tube fasteners. The tang is tapered and had a 1/4inch spine. The blade has been cold blued. Overall, it is 13 1/8in long with an 8 3/8in blade. Weight is 14 1/2oz. "
This thing would make Jim Bowie proud. Fast in the hand but just heavy enough for a good solid chop. Handle is exceptionally comfortable. My only gripe with this setup is that the sheath is a tad loose but that could probably be remedied quite simply with a heat gun. SOLD $375 will ship this to your home where it will probably become a family heirloom.
