Scagel | Bowie - Teal, Purple & Natural Elder Burl

The Bark River Scagel Bowie is the second in Bark River's 2017 Release of Scagel Series. The knife is 100% Bill Scagel in profile and pattern. This Bowie pattern screams out Bill Scagel. It is his most famous pattern. Bill was the first custom Knifemaker of note right after the turn of the 19th Century and made knives for sportsman and outdoorsmen. His knives were carried by noted outfitters like Abercrombe and Fitch and Von Lengerke & Antoine. The knives were used on hunting trips and safaris in the grand ole days of the first world wide hunts. The impact of Scagel on the knife industry was very important ?? his work inspired men like Bo Randall to start making knives. The 2017 Bowie Knife has all of the Spirit of the old knives but made with modern methods and components married to old world hand grinding and finishing like Bill did himself.
