Tools and Hardware Reviews of Winchester 22-41206 Large Bowie Knife with SheathCustomer Review: Good blade for the bucks Summary: 5 Stars
I have had this knife out of the package now for about 45 minutes and I have to say that I have been picking it up over and over and looking at it closely.
There are no visible defects anywhere on the knife or sheath. I do not care much for the Winchester name on the blade but it does not impact the function and
is merely cosmetic. For the $20 plus change that I paid for this knife I have to say that I am well pleased with it. So pleased in fact that I have already put
in an order for 2 more. Keeping in mind that this is not some custom made super steel alloy $300 knife I believe that the quality is very good.
So what if you have to put a stone or a steel to the blade now and then. It is well worth the money, not tax, and maybe free shipping if you buy more than one or other items.I find the finger grooves fit my hand (extra large glove size) just peachy and if your hands get wet, or bloody, you might be glad that the grooves are there.
My only possible complaint might be the thin material of the two straps which hold the knife in the sheath. The could be a little more substantial since
they will get a lot of use but they are probably tougher than they seem to be and will be adequate.
I plan to give away these extra knives to my friends when I need a cool "guy gift". Even if they have no practical use for such an knife it is
a bad to the bone blade that has real major machismo appeal. I do like knives and have quite a few including the Kabar combat knife that I was issued in Danang, Viet Nam in 1970. I am no stranger to working blades and this one fits the bill. You can use it and abuse it without worrying about damaging your expensive drawer queen custom made knife. I plan to carry mine when I go ground hog hunting or into areas where there are a lot of wild berry bushes which you might need to ease your way through. You can buy this knife and feel like you made a good deal for yourself, you could do a lot worse.
