I’ve shared this video maybe fifty times over the last few years. I remember Bill Bagwell saying “more blade, less sheath” This is the best sheath system for street carry for any large fixed blade. 👍🏻👍🏻🇺🇸
I've had my sheath made and delivered by Mike for over ten years. It is in my,opinion the very best way to carry a blade that size. I have spent time with Robin and Mike for a weekend and never noticed the blades being carried even with one gentleman in gym shorts and tee shirt. There are many supposed experts out there on blades but I've seen nothing compare to the skill set these gentlemen posses. I would rather tackle a lawn mower than attempt a confrontation with these guys. Great presentation as always brownie good seeing you again.
My favorite big knife carry is my Randall No.1 that my uncle carried through three tours in Vietnam. It not only has a lot of history, it is a very well made and balanced knife. I had a lwather IWB sheath made for it and don't leave home without it. I usually carry my Tops Moccasin Ranger along with it either on my weak side or in my weak side boot.
Thanks for sharing. I carry and draw a 7” bladed dagger daily like this, tho w OWB snap loops rather than the stud. I find that the double snap loops keep it stable and from falling forward while standing or backwards while sitting so that the hilt does not stick out and “tent” my shirt or jacket I am over 6’ tall, sorta slim, have a relatively short torso, and i cant seem to conceal one bigger than this well. I have to keep it high enough so i can sit w/o it coming up. This also keep my pant leg from making the hilt pivot back n forth while walking
I was thinking about the difference between kydex and leather for this application. I like kydex better because it won’t bend or twist with age like leather can do. I had this sheath made for my Prather War Bowie three years ago and have enjoyed it immensely. Have me needed it for self defense, but it comes out fast when someone asks if I can cut something. The look on their face is worth more than the cost of a sheath. 😎
Awesome as always sir! While watching you deploy the Bagwell I kept hearing a mewling sound at my hip. Turns out it was my Spyderco Endura whimpering over and over, "Mommy! Mommy!"LOL
Having a knife of this caliber on hand, this fast, is impressive. Stopping an edged weapon attack by shooting someone, of course, works, but even center mass hits with most duty caliber handguns take time to work and do nothing to parry or control incoming weapons. Sometimes taking the hand could prove faster and more definitive. This all only applies within certain distance. I'd say approximately 3 to 4 yards would be your max optimal window. Of course I'm no expert, just thinking out loud. 🤔
Great knife and sheath, and it's clear you know your stuff !! I've heard of the famous "Brownie pop" with folders...Please, make a video about it too !!
Brownie, I haven't seen a post of yours for a long time. I'm glad I 're-found' your videos. I used to follow and agree with your views on a 'disputed' folding knife long ago: Stratofighter. (and others) I still have that blade...and I still like it's robustness. (Yes, sir, I've been cajoled and I took my 'kicks,' but I haven't budged an inch.) I like this Bill Bagwell Bowie and Panther combo. Nice video, Robin. I'll subscribe to your channel...thanks!
Great video Brownie! John from up in ME here. We need to see more of that Bagwell, looks sweet, I have always liked his stag bowies. Good to see you are still kickin'.
Wonderful video sir! You can absolutely carry a knife this size concealed! I carry a 10.5” Laredo Bowie every single day, for around 2 years now, and I’m 5’6” 165lbs. I wear wife beaters every day (now I do usually wear a thin Western snap shirt over this when in public to conceal that bowie, but more than once when I didn’t have any cover shirt I simply pulled the tank top over the handle of the Laredo, no it wasn’t exactly invisible but hey, it’s good enough to go to Walmart or something. And I wear my tank tops tight-not this baggy shit kids wear these days. I carry it in the leather sheath with the belt peg just like this sheath-and thanks for the contact information for Panther, already contacted them! One question, if you’re right handed do you wear the sheath on your right side? For some reason it’s uncomfortable to me, and I have gotten used to wearing it on the left side even though I am right handed, and it takes 2 hands to draw, big thank you very much for this “cav draw” technique.
First, thanks for the thoughts on the vid. I carry Cav draw left side, even though I'm right handed, because the gun is on the right side, and I don't want the knife nor the gun to be in close proximity to avoid fouling either draw. I'm fortunate that I'm basically ambi dextrous in many disciplines, knives, guns, sticks etc so I still draw one handed with the left hand, and if I need or want to can move the blade to the other hand on the fly with nary any interruption in flow, as demonstrated
Robin Brown now, if I am right handed, it technically would be better to wear it on my right, since I am not ambidextrous, correct? I don’t carry a gun (yet) for several reasons (no, I’m not a felon) So, I carry the Laredo and O.C. The O.C. I have is a Kimber Pepperblaster 2, so it’s drawn like a pistol, right side for me, maybe some adjustments are due to speed up my draw.
If you're right handed, it would be normal to carry it on your strong side Cav draw. The gun is my primary, so it goes on the right, the blade is a BUG secondary for me, so it goes on the opposite side. I just have the advantage of ambi use though most won't. Also, I can cross draw it right handed if I choose to from the left side so either hand has access to the blade. Seated, cross draw works best, standing, either works with as much speed of presentation for me from concealed.
You can wear a T shirt, a sweatshirt, a wife beater, a sports jacket over a dress shirt, a suit jacket, etc You don't NEED to wear an oversized T shirt, I just happen to wear them nearly daily. And that shirt is custom made for SAR, not something from Walmart. I happen to be wearing a full size handgun on the opposite side as well. If you carry a gun, you understand why one wears loose fitting clothing of their choice, to conceal. The art of concealment isn't rocket science
That's a nice bowie you have there.I had a hells belle years ago with a leather sheath I think kydex is better too I assume you're in arizona and that state legally allows you to carry a bowie ? Im jealous.
Nice video! I've never seen a draw like that before. I've always seen and used a crossdraw with large Bowies. Are you left handed? Or did you just get used to it to allow a handgun holster on the right side? Thanks!
Thanks! I'll have to watch the video again and really study the draw. I love that Panther sheath too! I'll have to get in touch with them. I've owned three Bagwell knives in the past but foolishly sold them all. I hope I can replace them someday. It's nice talking with you, Erik
Thank you very much for sharing! I have two questions though: 1) Does this not cause hip pain by pressing against the hip bone? 2) Is this system bulletproof against losing the knife when running, e.g. while running away from a threat (which should always be the number one choice)? Thank you very much in advance for taking the time to answer my question.
Hi John, No hip pain carrying mine all day. It sorta floats in position, so moving doesn't create hot spots as it would if stationary. Second question about losing it when running. It would depend on how tight you wear your belt. I prefer my belts snug, and wearing my bowie with belt snugged, I'm not going to lose it running. Remember, the heaviest portion of the "system" is below your belt line. It's not going to just pop out of your pants. Hope that helps sir.
+Robin Brown I open carry, to remind civilians, its a right. 2 Cold Steel combat bowies, two 14" throwing bowies, 1 oversized Damascus 'D' ring bowie, 1 Bible. (and thats just my belt)
Are you still caryiny this knife daily. Bill bagwell just started my knife and should be in my hoands hopefully in about 7-8 weeks. Plan on carrying mine everyday.
I haven't carried it in the last few months as I've been on an adventure in Alaska on the motorcycle. Once the heat calms down in a few months, it'll be back to daily carry though. Best of luck on your Bagwell, top of the line fighters.
How does the blade forward carry work with the back cut technique. I notice you are left handed. Will the blade forward carry work on an opponent's right and left hand?
Once the blade is free of the sheath, the back cut is performed no differently than sabre draw [ the way I carry it is called a cav draw ]. The back cut is performed in several directions. The 1 and 3 angles of attack work perfectly with back cut.
Really cool vid, that combo's about as good as gets IMO. But how is it for driving around in a car with bucket seats? That's always been my problem with long knives. Or do you just take the sheath out of yr pants entirely when youre in a car?
i have an ontario sp-18, its discontinued now but has the same blade as the bagwell bowie, trying to find a kydex sheath that will fit it, will these sheath fit it?
Of course, you're looking for it. Yet I've had leo's on the street and in the shop never see it until I showed it to them. It draw no attention and is not conspicuous enough for the person on the street to see it printing.
Hey brownie with the passing of bill bagwell are you still carrying yours. I've been carrying mine still. Just curious if it's one of those things you just put in your safe. I feel like he wouldn't want that though. He always told me there ment to be used and carried. Just wondering your thoughts on it. Sure wish I could have had another smaller one made before he passed away.
i observed the shit out of that knife, when you bend forward or squat it's very observable, also from the front you can see the shirt getting caught on the end of the handle constantly.
you are right, knowing it's there makes it easier to spot. If i were to choose a bowie knife for camp work/ learning to fight which one from the cold steel one would you recommend, if any ? natchez or laredo ?
that's what i thought and thanks for answering. From what i can see the clip point on the hells belle is barely curved, does it still catch stuff on the back cut ? As it seems to not have any "talon" or claw like quality that i personally look for in a clip point
i understand,i thought having the point be more claw like would mean it catches flesh better and would be more damaging. How much does it whey ? Considering the price, it's not one of my choices, are there any other similar bowies out there that are more affordable ? I personally like the natchez but it seems too big. It doesn't have a distal taper, i don't like the handle, the tang design is questionable, and it seems like it wouldn't work very well if you tried carrying it around like you do. I also like an s shaped guard but it's rarely seen in production bowies. I saw your shooting videos, awesome work, having guns is one of the few things i like about your country.
the one thing i like about the natchez is the belly, i think it adds a lot to slashing effectiveness and to it's overall basic performance. I don't know why it's not a basic feature of the knife design and it's so rarely seen in bowie knives. I can't see any disadvantages for it.
if a fighting knife . and can not have that if there goting try kill you why the law in some states out law them self defence not aloud if you do thay bowb up your house car thay cant get at you
Not just any sheath, it's a sheath that adjusts to your present position, whether standing or sitting with it's old world button. The knife and sheath used duplicates the old world 1840's system of carrying a large bowie knife adopted by the Spanish in New Orleans.
when you pull a knife out your going for the kill keeping element of surprise and as fast as you can take out your knife stab the throat or heart area , other wise knife makes horrible weapon thats why its illegal in most states to carry one since they see it that way you carrying it for the kill other wise your just slashing each other for what looks like hours
Appreciate the concern. It's not mainstream, but neither are the numbers of people trained in the long knife. i know of maybe a dozen who regularly carry a bowie thusly.
My husband is one of those who carry a 10.5" Bowie on a regular basis concealed. It is on its way back from Bill Bagwell who ground and sharpened the backcut and put a real razor edge on the primary. This is not a real Bagwell Bowie. It is one my husband has had. He loves it and it soon will be on its way to Panther for their Commodore sheath.
In fact, in many states it does. In fact, in THIS state one doesn't even need a permit to carry a knife of any kind concealed. But you're right about one thing, intelligence can be at an all time low for many who don't take the time to research the laws in general, let alone the laws of individual states they reside in.

This is my 2nd favorite way to carry a large bowie knife.
Scout carry being my 1st choice since I prefer horizontal quickdraw in reverse grip.
I've had my sheath made and delivered by Mike for over ten years. It is in my,opinion the very best way to carry a blade that size. I have spent time with Robin and Mike for a weekend and never noticed the blades being carried even with one gentleman in gym shorts and tee shirt.

That sure is a nice blade....
Awesome instructional video as always Brownie. I have come back to this one a few times to remember the "little" things.
Robin Brown That sure is a nice blade.
Awesome as always sir! While watching you deploy the Bagwell I kept hearing a mewling sound at my hip. Turns out it was my Spyderco Endura whimpering over and over, "Mommy! Mommy!"LOL
Thanks John, that's funny about the Endura whimpering. It should just consider the Bagwell it's big brother, they are related after all. lol
Excellent demonstration and recommendation, sir. Thank you!
welcome sir, glad you enjoyed the vid
Wow! Learned something new today... Cav-draw from a right handed sheath carried on the left side.... Wicked fast! Thanks for sharing!
Glad to hear you enjoyed the video demonstration. Thanks for your comments

Still love it ! Awesome instruction.

I’m considering a setup with this for a smaller Bowie I have opposite side of my pistol.
We just need to wear everyday a oversize wallmart tshirt to do that 💪🏼

Sorry, I dint want to be rude. But I can not see how I can do that using my regular clotes.
Thanks.
@@Joranba If you can't you can't. plenty of people that can. No one way of carrying is the only way.
I carry like that, but my sheath is canvas (what came with the blade), I just stick it on my underwear like a Mexican carry. Strong side. Works fine
That's a nice bowie you have there.I had a hells belle years ago with a leather sheath I think kydex is better too I assume you're in arizona and that state legally allows you to carry a bowie ? Im jealous.

Really interesting copper guarded ricasso on that bagwell of yours. Haven't seen that one before.
brass, had him use it as it's a working knife, not a collector
Yeah I should of figured it was brass. Did you come up with that guard, it's pretty cool.
@@jeremiahjohnson2881 The design was left to Bagwell, the components were my choice.
You forgot to say it's like having a panther in your pants
How does this work when getting in and out of cars?
Thank you very much for sharing!

1) Does this not cause hip pain by pressing against the hip bone?

Put my Belle away a few years ago, now carrying Greg Covingtons bowie. Good to hear you're still carrying that long knife sir
Do some breathing practices big man, nothing wrong with the breathing in the background but it might do some good for you
I like the concept, but it almost seems like treason carrying a knife like that in a kydex scabbard
That's funny, I can't disagree with your premise though lol
i observed the shit out of that knife, when you bend forward or squat it's very observable, also from the front you can see the shirt getting caught on the end of the handle constantly.
you are right, knowing it's there makes it easier to spot. If i were to choose a bowie knife for camp work/ learning to fight which one from the cold steel one would you recommend, if any ? natchez or laredo ?
what makes that bagwell so good compared to others ? i know the natchez is heavy but where can i find other bowie knives that long and that nice
that's what i thought and thanks for answering. From what i can see the clip point on the hells belle is barely curved, does it still catch stuff on the back cut ? As it seems to not have any "talon" or claw like quality that i personally look for in a clip point
