Cold Steel Bowie Blade Bushman 95BBUSK - Fixed Blade Knife SK-5 Steel One-Piece

Overview

The Cold Steel Bowie Blade Bushman 95BBUSK is a fixed blade knife designed for demanding outdoor use, bushcraft and survival situations. Its distinctive feature: blade and handle are cold forged from a single piece of SK-5 steel, with no joint or weld, eliminating the usual weak point found in hollow-handle knives. A rugged, no-compromise solution for nature enthusiasts and outdoor professionals in Switzerland.

Use and Maintenance

Like any high-carbon steel, the blade should be cleaned and lightly oiled after use to prevent corrosion, especially in damp environments.
