Paul Chen Bowie knives?

[wwpete52]

I was wondering what the general opinion was about the Paul Chen historic series of Bowie knives? Are they good?

No one knows anything about these? I guess that means they're not very good. Right?

Generally I've heard that they tend to be a little soft. The Hanwei folks are geniuses with heat-treating swords, but when you put that treatment on knives it just doesn't work the same.

They are great knives i have the bision bowie and i bought it over a Blackjack 1-7 ,

I have the Kudu Buy rock creek and love it use it all the time. Blade steel is fine holds an edge awsome and sharpens easily. cant go wrong for the price.

This thread was started back before the Rock Creek line was even a glint in the milkman's eye. Hanwei has come a long way with their knives since 2008.
