Spyderco Street Bowie - A Self Defense Masterpiece from Fred Perrin

Former French commando, competitive fighter, kali expert and general badass Fred Perrin designed the low-profile Street Bowie for Spyderco and it and its smaller brother the Street Beat Bowie and they have been raging success ever since. Know for his stashable, highly ergonomic tactical designs, Perrin knocks the cutting performance of this knife out of the park, with its fully flat ground VG-10 blade and made it comfortable with a very rounded and contoured handle. This would serve excellently in many other roles, for instance camp food prep knife or light duty outdoors knife. However you use it, it stashes away nicely with the provided molded plastic handle. Great knife, highly recommended!!

I like the Tops Rapid Strike too but I believe my 2 favorite fixed blades are the Street Beat and the Street Bowie, they just both feel right in my hands.

[ericsierra-franco]

Fantastic blade! Very well designed.
I have a handmade Perrin Combat Bowie that I love! ♥️

[michaelschaffer]

The cargo pants I usually wear have deep front pockets. My Street Bowie fits perfectly and the sheath thumbs off at the draw.

[NetshadeX]

Good thing you got it dude. I know the feeling of contemplating a purchase for too long and seeing the knife discontinued. 😄

[FTWRSKNIVES]

Just got the max knives g10 handle le Bowie and it’s been my edc bowie

[effeojnedib]

Thanks for your review. Just ordered a Street Bowie. Thanks for your review !

[CthonicSoulChicken]

It's a beautiful knife, to be sure. I just want to throw out, though--its SO easy to make a knife like this yourself. If you've never made a knife, go for it! You can do it with minimal tools and some elbow grease. It's a very fun and rewarding hobby. Not knocking buying one--I'm just saying. You want a great, at-home hobby for grown ups? Go for it!

[liamroarke]

Man, I got one of the Baby Bowies, and holy shit. It's absolutely perfect.

[TheSensualSerpien]

IMO this knife is perfect on all counts, including (and especially) the sheath. Those who experienced the horrible sheath of the Street Beat needn't fear the same with the Street Bowie - the sheath is PERFECT.

[davidcallan]

I own one, all my reading on this blade says the coating is ceramic and not pvd. My sheath is the same model, no defects.
Great knife, love a modern Bowie .

[michaelschaffer]

Armatus makes a great kydex sheath for that knife

[danofiremano]

My Street Beat is all black & it's my fixed EDC at 0100-0130 Horizontal. I wouldn't mind this as a camp knife!

[VictorMaxol]

I wonder are those little loose grommets steel or aluminum? Steel is easier to tap and tighten.

[johncaban]

People are complaining that the sheath makes the blade dull. Any truth to that?

[michaelschaffer]

That El Via might be better with some Goon Tape.

[derburhans]

dare to sharpen those! it will be awesome but it might look scetchy

[richardhenry]

What your opinion now on it. Has it stood up to your opinion.
I personally really love the design. I also like the steel choice.
To me it's a knife that I can use for more then just in case.
I try to carry knives that I can actually use but are very capable.
I always carry a xl vaquero because it's the best self-defense design I've ever found.
I just love fixed blades. They are just hard to carry comfortably.
Any advice on how it carries?
That other fixed blade was beautiful (couldn't spell his name)

[mattharvey]

Great looking fixed blade! Now that’s a spyderco I would definitely own! The sheath sounds like a rattlesnake! Great review Bob!!

[wingardwearables]

So I just got mine. My sheath is like yours. The grommets sound like maracas.

[jasonashley]

I've wanted this knife for a long time, I just ordered it, hope I like it.
