Your original go-to bowie knife retailer, Bladeplay, has rebranded to Grindworx. Nothing has changed with the selection and value of bowie knives with the rebrand. In fact, the Grindworx site is more simple to use and has the same, expanding, collection of bowie knives found on bladeplay. Bladeplay has been the haven for bowie […]

Iconic Knives: Bowie Style
There’s another blog I update weekly called the “Knife Blog,” and it’s pretty great. You should check it out! This week I did a lot of research about different knives that have been produced through the years, and I found out that there are lots of knives out there that are considered to be iconic. […]
Boker Bowie Knives
Boker has been around since the 17th century, so it’s only fitting that the company would make some beautiful, traditional Bowie-style blades. There are a few Boker Bowies that I like in particular—take a look: Boker Luckett Bowie We looked at the Boker Plus Collection 2014 Bowie from Boker, but this is the 2012 […]
Bowie in the Movies

To supplement the information you already know, here’s a bit more about clip point blades and their pros and cons. Knowing the pros […]
Cold Steel Bowie Point Machete
In an earlier post, we talked about Cold Steel’s Laredo, Natchez, and Spike, which are some pretty solid blades. Cold Steel makes another Bowie that I like—the Bowie Point Machete. Machetes have always seemed pretty hardcore to me. There’s just something about a massive blade chopping through branches that’s captivating. Bowie knives are typically large […]
Damascus
I wanted to go off the beaten path a little bit today and talk about Damascus steel. Damascus may not make for your traditional Bowie, but it adds a unique look to any knife and it can also add a little variety to your knife collection. Without a doubt, Damascus is one of the […]
