Great video, thank you very much, and keep it up! Cute cat, by the way. Jim Bowie was supposedly born in Logan County, Kentucky, not that far from me, I live in Tennessee. You know quite a bit about the Bowie knife, and I thank you for the mention of the Bowie Messer book, I want to get it someday, it looks good.You are lucky to own a Helle's Belle, they are hard to find and expensive, the Ontario versions are discontinued. I LOVE Bill Bagwell's book, it is very informative!
Excellent video! I've really enjoyed this series so far. Please keep up the good work! And since I used to work in the Busse custom shop for 7 years, I was very pleased to see some of our knives in your previous video.
Very good review I teach classic knife fighting I teach the Scottish Highlands Style of knife fighting my style is derived from Scottish dirk but we also use the back cut like the Bowie knife style because a lot of Highland style dirks also had a sharp clip point like a Bowie knife but your information was very good about the Bowie knife thank you

Hi Thana,I had bought the Gerber Utility Bowie around 2010, and i bought it used (slightly used, but already re-sharpened) from ebay. If you Keep looking on ebay.com, sometimes somebody sells a Gerber Bowie there. The rubber coffin grip indeed is awesome. Cheers, Erik
it's pronounced "boo-ee", from the scots, meaning "fair-haired". great video though, despit the outrageous closed captions...."sable dancing"?? and it's james KEATING, not "cutie" tho he is quite fetching~

How long that you have Gerber Coffin handle bowie? By the time I could afford it ,they discontinued making it

A good choil will also act as a blade catch and bind up an opponents blade. A fighting guard though better isn't necessary on every Bowie
Hi Buddy,yes, I agree: a good straight guard is very helpful in binding (or at least in stopping) an incoming blade ... Thanx forwatching, Erik
Nice german accent. Thanks for the video.

Lol! I'm sure Jim would get quite a chuckle at your comment!
It's pronounced Boo eee not Bow Eee
Great video, terrible Audio. great information, but the audio is the most important part of any film or video.
nice video. I like the guard design of the second knife but it's not a bowie. That spear point is ugly and i don't see it's purpose
