12" Handmade Damascus Bowie Knife – Hardwood Handle & 384-Layer Blade

Discover rugged beauty and refined craftsmanship with the 12" Handmade Damascus Steel Bowie Knife from Heritage Forge. This full-size hunting knife features a 7-inch blade forged from real 384-layer Damascus steel, a blend of 1095 high-carbon and 15N20 nickel steel—oil tempered to a Rockwell hardness of 58–60 HRC for long-lasting edge retention.

The hardwood handle is hand-polished for a smooth, ergonomic grip, complemented by a balanced full tang build and 20-degree sharpened edge for slicing precision. Unlike acid-etched imitations, this knife showcases true pattern-welded Damascus, etched to reveal the intricate, high-contrast twist pattern that continues to the cutting edge. It’s more than a tool—it’s a legacy piece made for collectors, hunters, and outdoor enthusiasts alike.

Each knife is 100% handmade without CNC machining, ensuring no two are exactly alike. Includes a custom high-quality cowhide leather sheath, hand-tooled to match the knife's rugged authenticity.

Whether you're looking for a durable field knife, a centerpiece for your collection, or a functional work of art—this blade delivers.
