Elk Ridge Bowie Hunting Knife Pakkawood | SHOGUN

Bowie Hunting Knife Elk Ridge – robust hunting knife for outdoor adventures

This Bowie hunting knife from Elk Ridge is a versatile outdoor knife with a classic appearance. The characteristic Bowie design with blade shape combines tradition with functionality for bushcraft and camping. The ergonomic grip made of pakkawood and the material 3Cr13 steel make this an accessible knife for outdoor activities.

Experience from the Shogun team

During a weekend camping trip, it was noticeable how well this hunting knife cut through branches for the campfire. The weight of 352 grams felt substantial but not too heavy during prolonged use, even when working with wet wood.

Performance and sharpness of this knife

The 12.7 cm blade is made of 3Cr13 stainless steel – a reliable steel type that retains its sharpness reasonably well and is easy to maintain. This knife with plain-edge grind cuts effectively through wood, rope and food, although you will need to sharpen it more often than premium steel types.

Grip and ease of use

The pakkawood handle with silver-coloured bolster feels comfortable in the hand. The material feels warm and provides good grip, even with wet hands. The balance is good for a fixed blade knife of this size.

Who is this hunting knife suitable for?

Perfect for beginners in bushcraft or campers looking for an affordable, reliable outdoor knife. Also suitable for collectors who appreciate the classic Bowie design. For intensive professional use or fine cutting work, there are better options available.

Maintenance and durability

The 3Cr13 steel is reasonably corrosion-resistant but requires regular maintenance. Clean the knife after use, dry it thoroughly and lightly oil the blade. The included leather sheath protects the knife excellently during transport and storage.
