Spyderco Schempp Bowie™* Archived Products

Designed By Renowned Custom Knifemaker Ed Schempp, Spyderco’S Schempp Bowie Honors The Iconic American Bowie Knife By Expressing It As A Modern, High-Performance Folder. Its Distinctive Blade Faithfully Retains The Broad Profile, Long Belly, And Concave Clip Point Of The Classic Bowie Pattern, But Renders Them In Premium Cpm® S30V® Powdered Metallurgy Stainless Steel. The High Flat Grind And Full-Thickness Spine Offer An Exceptional Synthesis Of Strength And Low-Friction Edge Geometry, While Spyderco’S Trademark Round Hole™ Ensures Swift, Positive, One-Handed Opening With Either Hand.

The Schempp Bowie’S Handle Blends Tradition And State-Of-The-Art Materials By Combining Skeletonized Full Stainless Steel Liners, Carbon Fiber/G-10 Laminate Scales, A Solid Steel Backspacer, And Classic Brass Bolsters. The Bolsters Include A Subtle But Functional Integral Double Guard And Are Mated To The Scales With A Meticulously Machined Dovetail Joint. The Classic “Coffin-Shaped” Handle Has A Slightly “Dropped” Angle To Allow A Natural Wrist Angle During Use. This Subtle Detail Shortens The Blade’S Opening Arc, Increases Cutting Power, Reduces Fatigue, And Instinctively Orients The Point With The Axis Of The Forearm.

A Stout Linerlock Mechanism Locks The Blade Securely When In Use And A Reversible Deep-Pocket Wire Clip Provides Instant Access And Exceptionally Discreet Tip-Up Carry. An Amazing Fusion Of Traditional Style And State-Of-The-Art Manufacturing And Materials, Spyderco’S Schempp Bowie Is A Fitting Tribute To One Of America’S Most Revered Cultural Symbols.
