UPS delivered it thirty minutes ago. First thing , stuck it on a pole and threw it into an Ash Tree. It went in about two inches and stayed there, swaying back and forth.Did this several times, then repeatedly thrust it in the cardboard box it was shipped in. Wicked. I felt fourteen years old. Pawpaws lookout. Oyster mushrooms cant hide. Rabid coyotes, "Make my day".
 
I always wondered how much these would need to be flexed before not going back to straight. I should try that out sometime, for the price.
 
I think you will find that bushman bowie to be a great knife and quite a bargain for the price.

I bought the regular bushman for my 14 year old son and it is really amazing what it will do and for only $20!

We have batoned with it, chopped with it, and even made a spear out of it. It has held up quite well and retained a pretty good edge. It has only needed a little touch up to resharpen.

It is really a "fun" knife and I will probably be ordering another one for myself.

Enjoy that knife. I don't think it will disappoint you.
 
It might be fall til I get out and play with it much. I cant tolerate the heat very well.
 
This is the first time I wrapped a handle. Ill have to remove it because it wont fit in the sheath.The pole is a Osage Orange sapling I sometimes use as a walking stick.
