From its huge imposing blade to its handsome rosewood handle, every inch of the Cold Steel 12.25 in. 1917 Frontier Bowie Knife screams perfection! This versatile knife is suitable for historical re-enactment groups from the 1830's onwards, cowboy action shooters, civil war re-enactors and even modern military groups. This truly battle-ready blade is great for any adventure, so whatever your frontier, make sure that you have a Cold Steel Frontier Bowie by your side! The swiveling leather belt frog is wide enough to accommodate even a thick military belt and fully detachable to allow you to slide the knife into your belt for a more traditional carry.Note: This product may require up to 2 additional days for order processing prior to shipping

  • Wide, wickedly keen hand-sharpened blade with a generous clip and huge fuller
  • Made from 1055 Carbon Steel, it is heat-treated to a hard spring temper and beautifully blued to a lustrous finish
  • Blade is both long and stiff enough to oppose even much larger weapons, while wide and sharp enough to make the most of every opportunity to cut, thrust and deliver a palpable hit
  • Handle is a perfect accompaniment to its battle-ready blade
  • Big S-shaped guard offers excellent hand protection while the slim, flat profile stops it from twisting in your hand and keeps your edge alignment true, even in the heat of combat
  • Modified pistol grip also keeps the knife locked safely in your hand even when utilizing a palm-reinforced grip for extended reach and leverage in the thrust
  • High-quality leather sheath with a blued steel throat and chape
  • Swiveling leather belt frog is wide enough to accommodate even a thick military belt and fully detachable to allow you to slide the knife into your belt for a more traditional carry

Could be sharper

I have had this knife for a few years, it came to me quite dull though. It is an impressive hunk of steel though, i feel i could take on a bear with this knife.

Great Bushcraft knife

a year ago
I bought this about a year ago. I live up in the Adirondack mountains. I have taken that out as my bushcrafting knife. It's a little large. You can get used to it, but as far as making kinling processing stuff around the camp, this knife is a beast holds an edge great overall. I would recommend this to anybody that does outdoor work

Yes, I recommend this product.

1917 Frontier Bowie, Ready to hunt!

2 years ago
The 1917 Frontier Bowie has a great shape, very sharp blade and is generally well made. The balance is good, and the overall construction is very sound. The sheath is solid and easy to use, but its belt hoop is large and floppy. I wouldn't recommend wearing it on your belt. Especially considering the length of the blade. I only have one concern and that's the handle construction. The wood is nice looking and comfortable to handle, but the screws detract from the overall look. The knife is not subtle and makes a statement. I recommend the knife.

Yes, I recommend this product.
