Hunter Bowie
| The Historical Bowie Series from CAS Hanwei covers both Bowies
made in different American States and Bowies made in Sheffield
for the American market. Each piece in the series is crafted with
a forged high-carbon steel blade, nickel silver fittings and natural
grip materials, as were the originals. Each sheath is crafted in
top-grain leather and a belt frog, where applicable, is included.
Every effort has been made to replicate accurately the details
of the original pieces, so as to provide heirloom-quality Bowies
to the collector. |
| Alfred Hunter was a cutler from Newark, New Jersey.
He was in the Bowie knife business in the 1830’s and 1840’s.
His bowies were top quality then, and very rare now. The notch
on the blade is called a Spanish notch, a feature found in several
variations on some early Bowies. |
