Carbon Steel Hunting Boar Bowie Knife – Stag Antler Handle & Leather Sheath 13 Inch

Stone-Washed Carbon Steel. Built for the Boar Hunt.

This custom handmade carbon steel boar Bowie knife is a large, capable, full-tang fixed blade built for serious big game hunters who need a knife that performs in the most demanding field conditions. The 8-inch carbon steel blade is stone-washed to a matte organic finish — a surface treatment that removes reflective glare in the field, hides minor surface wear during hard use, and gives the blade a rugged, battle-ready character that mirror-polished blades cannot match. The wide belly profile of the blade is purpose-designed for the powerful cutting strokes required in boar and large game field work. The integral guard and finger choil provide positive hand protection during high-force cuts. The natural dark stag antler handle with brass pins delivers a secure, organic grip in all field conditions. The deep burgundy-brown gradient genuine leather sheath with dotted stitch perimeter provides premium belt carry and display storage.

Blade Details

The 8-inch high carbon steel blade is ground to a wide belly boar hunting profile — a blade shape optimized for the powerful downward cutting and skinning strokes required in boar and large game field dressing. The stone-wash finish is achieved by tumbling the finished blade with abrasive media — creating a matte, organically textured surface that is non-reflective in field conditions and highly resistant to showing minor surface scratches and wear during hard working use. Carbon steel at this profile and finish takes and holds a keen working edge and re-sharpens readily on a whetstone or leather strop. The integral guard at the blade shoulder provides a positive hand stop during high-force cuts, and the finger choil allows an index-finger-forward choked-up grip for precision close-work tasks.

Handle Details

The natural dark stag antler handle is selected for dramatic dark brown coloration with deep ridged organic texture — the porous antler surface provides a naturally non-slip grip that performs in wet, cold, and field-bloody conditions. Two brass pins secure the handle scales to the full tang. Each piece of stag antler is unique in color, texture, and surface character — no two handles are identical.

Sheath Details

The deep burgundy-brown gradient genuine leather sheath transitions from rich burgundy at the throat to dark chocolate brown at the tip — a premium vegetable-tanned leather finish that gives the sheath a distinctive, handcrafted appearance. The dotted stitch pattern runs the full perimeter of the sheath. The integrated belt loop provides standard belt carry. The leather will develop a rich natural patina with field use over time.

The Boar Hunter’s Bowie

Craftsmanship

Every element of this knife is built by hand. The high carbon steel billet is forged, ground, heat-treated, and stone-washed by a craftsman. The integral guard and finger choil are ground into the blade shoulder by hand. The dark stag antler handle scales are selected, fitted with brass pins, and assembled over the full tang. The burgundy-brown gradient leather sheath is cut, stitched with dotted perimeter stitch, and fitted with the belt loop by hand. No two knives are identical in stag antler grain or stone-wash character.

Care Instructions

Wipe the stone-washed carbon steel blade clean after each use. Hand wash only — never dishwasher. Dry immediately after any moisture contact. Apply a light coat of blade oil or mineral oil to the carbon steel blade regularly — carbon steel will develop surface patina and rust without regular oiling, especially in humid or salt-air environments. The stone-washed finish will develop a natural working patina with use that adds to its rugged character. The stag antler handle benefits from occasional light oiling with food-safe mineral oil. Condition the leather sheath seasonally with leather conditioner.

Keep out of reach of children. Always follow proper knife safety practices during use and storage.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a stone-washed blade finish?
A stone-washed finish is achieved by tumbling the finished blade with abrasive media in a tumbler. The process creates a matte, organically textured surface across the blade flat that is non-reflective in field conditions, highly scratch-resistant in working use, and gives the blade a rugged, battle-worn character. Unlike mirror-polished blades that show every fingerprint and scratch, a stone-washed blade looks better with use over time.

What is a finger choil?
A finger choil is an unsharpened cutout or notch at the base of the blade edge just ahead of the guard. It allows the index finger to move forward of the guard onto the blade shoulder for a choked-up grip that provides greater precision and control during close, detailed cutting tasks. Combined with the integral guard, it gives the user the option of two distinct grip positions on the same knife.

Is the stag antler genuine?
Yes — the handle is made from genuine natural stag antler. Each piece is unique in color, texture, and grain. No two handles are identical.

Is this suitable as a gift?
Yes — the combination of stone-washed carbon steel wide belly blade, integral guard, natural dark stag antler handle, and burgundy-brown leather sheath makes this an outstanding and distinctive gift for any boar hunter, outdoorsman, or knife collector.
