A Modern Bowie
Jim Ankerson is a passionate student of metallurgy and its relationship to knife design and performance. Drawing from his hard-earned practical knowledge and years of knife-testing experience, he teamed up with custom knifemaker Darrin Sanders to design a capable, all-purpose knife that is ready for anything. The Bowie-style blade is machined from CPM 4V, a particle metallurgy tool steel enriched with vanadium and molybdenum for high-calibre strength, edge retention, and toughness, almost chemically identical to Bohler 4 Vanadis Extra. The high sabre grind combined with stunning swedge, balances strength and edge geometry, while it full-tang handle and contoured G-10 scales safeguard a secure, hand-filling grip.
This example is unused and uncarried. It's complete with original box and factory sealed leather sheath, as well as the official Spyderco Kydex sheath which is very rare. Original box included, a small tear is present on the opening flap.
