Bowie Pic

chetchat · Feb 17, 2002

Hi Folks - been ages since I posted here, and am happy to see so many familiar faces still doing business as usual. This had always been one of the pleasant places to visit in the various weapons forums

Reason I'm here, I had occasion today to post a pic of some "tools" I had on hand that I'd consider for bear defense should the occasion arise. One of them is the HI Bird and Trout Knife, aka The Ang Khola Bowie. I went to the HI Shopping site and saw a picture of the AKB there. Though elegant, it doessn't show the volume of the knife; it's quite the handful.

So let me share this pic with you, it's one of the prototype Bowies with a couple of other items to show scale. I hope the pic works, it's on Imagestation and they've been spotty at times :

Cool pix! The Side by side reminds me of the movie "The Road Warrior"!

WOW

Thanks for cool pic of the deadliest "handgun" known to man--the 12gauge sawn-off shotgun

Do you need a class 3 license for that bad boy? Man, I'd love to own one of those---and even more I wish I could legally carry one as my concealment weapon!!

My vision is really, really bad. Could I get a scope for that sawed off?

I actually like the looks of that prototype a lot better than the currently offered model.

If the Cherokee Rose pans out I don't think we'll be selling many AK Bowies and may drop them from the line. So, hang on to the ones you have. They are probably going to become collector items.
