This Handmade Frontier Clip Point Bowie Knife follows a classic Sheffield-inspired Bowie design built for balance, strength, and traditional styling. With a large 13-inch blade, stacked leather handle, and solid brass fittings, this handmade knife combines frontier craftsmanship with bold Bowie knife character.
JW SteelCrafts offers this knife in two blade options. You can choose a layered Damascus steel blade with flowing natural patterns or a high carbon steel blade with a smooth mirror-polished finish. Both versions follow the same long clip point profile designed for controlled cutting and balanced handling.
The Damascus steel version features visible layered grain patterns formed during the forging process. Each blade develops its own unique appearance, giving every knife a distinct handmade look. The mirror-polished carbon steel version provides a bright, reflective finish with clean-cutting performance and traditional Bowie styling.
The 13-inch clip point blade gives the knife strong reach and a commanding appearance. The long clip improves tip precision while maintaining cutting strength along the blade edge. This classic blade shape remains one of the most recognized Frontier Bowie knife profiles.

Stacked Leather Handle and Brass Fittings

The 7-inch handle is crafted from stacked leather designed for grip comfort and balanced handling. The layered leather construction creates a strong and stable grip while maintaining the traditional appearance associated with historic Bowie knives.
A solid brass guard improves hand protection and balance during handling. The brass pommel strengthens the handle structure and completes the knife’s traditional frontier appearance. Full tang construction extends through the entire handle for added durability and long-term reliability.
Each Handmade Frontier Clip Point Bowie Knife includes a handcrafted leather sheath for safe carry, storage, and blade protection.
