About Bowie Knives
Bowie knives for sale at Warborn Blades — the clipped-point pattern that outlived the men who named it. One blade, one clipped point, one purpose: a working edge that can fight, dress game, cut cord, and stand in for a camp knife when the camp is nowhere near.
A real bowie has a full tang, a thick spine, and a flat or hollow grind that runs clean to the edge. The clip point lowers the tip for piercing without sacrificing the belly for slicing. Blade steels range from high-carbon 1095 to tool-steel varieties like D2, each with its own balance of edge retention and toughness.
Every piece in this hall is held by a licensed dealer and ships from the United States. The Herald's guide to choosing a bowie walks through what to look for in the steel, the guard, and the grind before you buy.

Questions at the Door
- What bowie knives does Warborn Blades carry?
- 47 pieces stand in The Bowies today — the clipped point, carried close. One blade, one clipped point, one purpose. The pattern that outlived the men who named it. Every piece is held by Warborn Blades as a licensed dealer of melee arms and armor, and ships from the United States.
- How much do bowie knives cost?
- In this hall the crown runs from $41.99 to $184.99, with the middle of the rack near $70.99. Every price shown is the price paid — no hidden dues are added at the vow beyond lawful sales tax and carriage.
- How long are these pieces?
- They measure 6" to 12.5" overall. Each ware page states its own reach; where a measure was not given by the forge, we say plainly that our reckoning is an estimate rather than pretend to a number we were not told.
- Do I have to be eighteen to buy?
- Yes. Warborn Blades sells edged and impact arms only to buyers eighteen years or older, and the gate verifies age before any steel is shown. Some states and cities restrict particular patterns; the buyer is responsible for the law where the parcel lands.
- What if the steel arrives damaged or is not what I wanted?
- Unblooded steel may be sent back within 30 days of arrival. There is never a restocking toll — the full price of the piece comes back to you. The road home is yours to pay, unless the piece came to harm on the road, was faulty, or was not what you ordered; then the house bears the carriage both ways. Speak to the Steward's Ear and a return writ is issued the same hour, or call the house at 1-800-368-8131.
