SG4™
Hunting Series (Modern Bowie
Model)
"Our modern Bowie tip design is great for all types of skinning, camp chores, digging and most outdoor uses. Knifekits.com is very proud of this (born in the USA) design." Our SG4™ Series fixed blade series were developed to be the highest quality kit knife ever attempted for the fixed blade market. When designing this knife, we wanted to develop the the most blade grind available in a kit for cutting meat and hide ... while still maintain it's toughness, for those who want to convert it to a utility or tactical knife model. If you notice the DEEP hollow grind; this grind was produced to help the SG4™ excel when slicing. The grind lines on this knife are very sharp and extremely crisp right out of the box. With a 600 grit satin finish on the blade, the SG4™ Modern Bowie makes for a an fun to build, superior quality kit that will have a finished blade, as is, or after profile modification, you can hand rub the blade back to the high satin finish we provide on the initial blade, with little effort. The SG4™ Modern Bowie kit comes with stainless bolsters , precision stainless pins and thong hole tubing, for a complete package. We designed the base handle on this design to be the same size as the blade thickness so that you can leave it as is, taper the tang a bit or skeletonize the tang portion under the scales for varying amounts of weight reduction in the finished piece. The outside of the SG4™ is satin scotch bright finished for the precision look needed by makers who sell their kit creations. The blade is made from high grade AUS8 stainless steel. The hardness comes in at 57-59 rc. We feel this is the ideal hardness for ease of sharpening, or prying.
