San Francisco Bowie

[mrstang01]

What makes a bowie a San Francisco Bowie? I've not heard that term used before.

Marbles used to make one. Check out wildbills wholesale.

They're designed for the limp wrist hold.





Seriously, do a quick search on this site. You'll find they're mid-sized, usually fancy, with minimal guards and a matching hard (usually metal) sheath. Think "grown up boot knife".

Pretty much. Gamblers delight. Coffin handles common ... I think.

They look more like daggers or boot knives than the common bowie knives.

Do a search for the knives of Michael Price.
