New Perrin St. Bowie

[MacLaren]

And I love it! A lot of people don't like the finger choil, but I do. I like it a lot actually. I also feel this is one of the best bargains Spyderco has to offer. And, that's saying a lot imo, as Spyderco is the sweet spot for quality and affordability- again, my opinion. But yeah, sweet,sweet little knife for $89. 5" of VG10 w/the very nice Spyderco sheath provided is just hard to beat! However, I will say this is the least sharp ( for lack of a better word) Spydie I've had. But, that's easily solved :)
Not much more offer as she just came in this morning. I'll have some pics up shortly......btw, I'll have a new Temperence 2 to compare with tomorrow morning. I'm in a fixed blade mood

Congrats with this fine aquisition :)

I totally agree with you! The Street Bowie is a sweet fixed blade and at a very reasonable price. I also love the overly large finger choil. When I saw the knife first I wasn't in to the choil, but once I handled the knife I really liked it. It gives a very secure grip together with the super nice ergos of the handle. This knives fits my hand like a glove.
On the sheet I cannot comment seen I bought mine direct from Fred, the green version and it came with a very nice custom kydex sheet made by Fred.

Very cool :)
But yes, I have so much control with the handle. Imo, Fred knows what he's doing.
And thanx to Sal and Fred for going with VG10.
I feel I would be certain in saying this is not a full tang. But, how far does it go I wander?
At any rate, this knife will prove to be useful as well as fun. :)

Great knife and great pics.

I wish they still made the satin version. I would get one for the kitchen ASAP

Thank you :)
And yes, no doubt. Would love this in Satin.
I can't wait for the Temperence 2 to get here.
But, this knife is just so wonderful for the $$$

Nice pics of a sweet knife! I have been trying to generate interest in a sprint run of this awesome blade. Not too much interest thus far. :o

Lol, I hear ya. Eventually :)
Ya know, as far as the Temperence 2 is concerned, some people believe its priced a bit too high. As for me, I feel she's worth every penny. She's far and away my favorite fixed blade. Talk about a smooth operator. The Temperence 2, truly is a study in control.
Here I am hi-jacking my own thread :)
I'll have a nice review and pics tomorrow sometime....
