The Texas Bowie Knife Kit Series embodies the legendary profile of the American Bowie knife while providing custom knife makers with a premium USA-made Damascus steel platform ready for personalization. Designed for craftsmen who appreciate traditional styling, substantial blade dimensions, and striking Damascus patterns, the Texas Bowie creates an impressive finished knife suitable for display, collection, hunting, outdoor use, or presentation.
Forged from USA-made carbon steel Damascus and expertly heat treated, the Texas Bowie features a classic hollow-ground blade profile that delivers excellent cutting performance while showcasing the distinctive layered Damascus pattern. With a commanding 7.625 inch blade length and an overall length of 12.125 inches, this design offers the size, balance, and visual impact expected from a traditional Bowie knife.
The full tang construction provides strength and durability, while two 0.156 inch tang holes allow for a wide variety of handle attachment methods. Stainless steel pinstock is included with every kit, and the tang can be easily modified to accommodate larger pins, tubes, or threaded fasteners. Each Texas Bowie also includes a matching Damascus guard that complements the blade pattern and simplifies the knife-building process.
The Texas Bowie series is available as a blade blank kit that includes the Damascus blade, matching guard, and stainless steel pinstock, or as complete combo kits that additionally include premium hardwood handle scales. Available handle materials include Bubinga, Canarywood, Curly Maple, Lacewood, Mahogany, Purpleheart, Walnut, and Yellowheart.
Whether you are creating a custom hunting knife, a showpiece for your collection, or a handcrafted gift that will be passed down for generations, the Texas Bowie Knife Kit Series provides an exceptional foundation for your next knife-making project.

Love the quality, wish it didn't have a bolster because it would be a rad candidate for a coffin handle .
