Re: Slysz Bowie!
Ha, well assuming it does get delivered Monday, I'll do my best to review it. Any existing models you want it pictured with?
Re: Slysz Bowie!
Maybe between a PM2 and a Millie if you're taking requests. Also next to a southard would be cool if you have one. For me, any common production spydie would be helpful for scale, or even just in hand pics. Thanks for indulging our vicarious living!
Re: Slysz Bowie!
Dang, Howes is getting them on Tuesday. Oh well. Looks like perfect specs. A hair under 3.5", robust build and thickness, FFG should bring it down to a nice edge thickness.

Re: Slysz Bowie!
I don't have a Southard any longer, but I have a PM2 and Millie. I'll try to use common size references.
Re: Slysz Bowie!
Mine just shipped from the Cutlery Shoppe for $280 shipped.

Re: Slysz Bowie!
Looks like everybody's putting them up now.
Re: Slysz Bowie!
Just got my order in at CS! I've been looking forward to this one for a while. I predict it will be seeing a lot of pocket time for the foreseeable future. :D

Re: Slysz Bowie!
Just picked mine up today in person from Omaha Knife. Very impressed so far. Will post pics on Sunday. Any comparison requests?
Re: Slysz Bowie!
I'd say Millie and PM2 would really give a good scale for most people. I'm interested to see it's proportions next to a Southard if you have one. And heck just the knife in hand would be awesome. Thanks!

Re: Slysz Bowie!
I'd request a Para 2 comparison, with a thickness comparison shot too. Thanks.
Re: Slysz Bowie!
Comparison with Stretch, Native 5 & Domino if possible please.
