Spyderco Bow River

Custom knifemaker Phil Wilson is an avid hunter and fisherman who incorporates his extensive outdoor experience into every one of his designs. That insight makes his knives the cutting tools of choice of savvy outdoorsmen worldwide and makes him one of Spyderco’s most popular collaborators. The Spyderco Bow River faithfully captures the spirit and detail of Wilson’s custom creation and delivers it in a package specifically geared toward budget-conscious adventurers. This compact, all-purpose design features a full-flat-ground, trailing-point blade crafted from 8Cr13MoV stainless steel. The blade is paired with a contoured, ergonomic, full tang handle with layered black and gray G-10 scales. Offering exceptional design and performance at an affordable price, the Bow River comes complete with a high-quality leather pouch-style sheath.

May not be a premium steel, but you can't argue with that price. Also, 0.118 is a very thin spine so it should slice well.

[tomhorn]

Why 8Cr13MoV? Because this knife isn't meant for those of us who appreciate premium steel. This is a 'entry level' knife is meant to attract a budget minded knife buyer who wouldn't ordinarily buy a Spyderco because of the price. That said, this would make a nice beater/truck knife for hopping out cutting asparagus, spur of the moment utility, gutting a road kill 'possum for dinner, etc. If someone breaks in your truck and steals it, So what? Buy two, keep one by the Sharpmaker so you always have a fresh one.

I absolutely love my Spyderco Phil Wilson Bow River. I EDC it all the time But...I want to see them move production OUT OF CHINA & AWAY FROM THE CCP.
This knife would be epic in D2 or even just AUS8 but all made in Taiwan.

[CVNOU]

Finally! I’ve been looking forward to this knife. Thanks, Spyderco!

[PRCHOCO]

About time! I preordered this one over a year ago.

Please do sprint runs, with different steels.

[davidsomerset]

Its ok but I don't need it. My Sprig and Southfork are all I need, they are wonderful.

[chandlerwise]

Love this knife. Wanting to purchase another in the green schemed handle

[thomasrooney]

I got this same knife 3 days ago and it’s sheath Lupe broke

[hanikaram]

Why did they not make it with 9Cr18moV ?

[Tiimur_T]

Только что купил один такой нож!!!... О-о-х-х!!!

[SailfishSoundSystem]

Why not BD1 or BD1N? Or even 440C? I mean from his S90V to 8Cr13MoV? That's a huge downgrade.

[JEEROFUKU]

I have nothing against China, only against Spydercos that made in China😉

[RR]

lets by honest here, 8crmov13 for a camp/fishing knife is not a good idea. you will be sharpening that thing every time you have to use it. that blade will always have chips and dings in it. but i do love the looks of it.

[willieboy]

You lost me at "origin China." No way I buy commie knives. Taiwan yes, Communist China no. Two countries; two systems.

Why couldn't they make in a Better Steel ?
