Ek Model 5 Bowie by KA-BAR Now Available

This could be it!
The model which might finally please
And convert the ka bar die hards.
But hold on a minute,
Where is the blood groove?! ;-)
Strangely enough,
I think this could be ek's best seller...
With a bit of imagination and know how.
I just know we would be seeing custom stag handles in no time!

Kudos to KaBar for offering these classic knives. At some point a guy like me starts to question whether he's almost got enough knives to last a lifetime...................then something like this happens and I can answer with a resounding NOT YET!

I've lusted over the EKs since I was a kid. Count on my acquiring the whole EK lineup before this is over.
 
Aw hell yeah......it has arrived....

Now, time to flex the plastic under my ass for some UPS action.....

I'm down with for this Bowie when it hits my fave Ka-bar dealer.

In Oregon we can carry single edged blades of any size, openly or concealed without a whisper from the government. The EK44? Not so much because it is a "dagger."

Just don't tell anyone... :D

This begs the question about if a sharpened swedge is also considered a double edged blade.
 
Since a sharpened swedge IS a second edge, I'd say it does in fact become a double edged blade.
 
I think this has shot to the top of my Christmas list! This was the first alert I have received from the Ka-Bar app which is fun

Excellent work KA-BAR! This looks like it has excellent modding potential too, I can just picture antique ivory micarta and a polished blade.
