Thanks to Wyatt Hines for Recommending “ Knivesshipfree “ website . Link to Cowboy Combat Knife video and how to order your very own custom hand made blade …. • Cowboy Combat Knife … ...
Amazing my friend very well made knifes your design and the bark river Bowie. Very good craftsmanship the leather work is beautiful. Thanks for share with us. I think I'm going to go church more often.. Saludos Amigo
Took a long time to finally add to the collection. Over the years I found a few on eBay that were not only a heck of a lot more $$ than this one - but they were marked up and not really cared for . I almost bought them . But glad I waited . Yeah this just might be my Grail knife . Love it !!!!! It’s a bit on the heavy side so it may be a pain to carry all day / night . That is the only negative. Now I need to treat this gorgeous sheath . I want to darken it too a bit . I’ll do follow up vid soon . Stay Cool my brother and thanks so much for being here 🤠🔪🙏
So many years doing research and investigations on this beauty . I had found a few over the years on eBay but they were really expensive and not quite as beautiful. Sone were really marked up and needed lots of TLC . I’m just glad I waited . I’m glad Wyatt had recommended this . I had forgot all about it !! Knivesshipfree had sent me an email a few months ago saying “ hey - your custom knife is ready - we will give you 2 weeks to claim “. Damn !! Only 2 weeks ?????? I worked it out . Thank God for the help of my daughter or I would of missed out on this . Now I’m glad they gave me a little time instead of just outright selling . ( I had pre ordered so I got a discount - a big discount I believe ). I have seen a few Bark Rivers on their website that I’d love to get my hands on . So many to choose from !!! Not fair !!!!!!!!?
Yeah bro …. A lotta years waiting for this one . This is one of those Oscar type blades IMO … “ I can’t believe I won !!! I want to first thank God …. And my ………” Haha 😂 I’m not worthy !!!!!!! Haha Hey thanks for stopping by my brother . Hope all is well 🤠🙏🔪
Haha Thanks so much for being here . My wife said “ you look like Jesse James going to the prom “. Haha 😂 Love it !! Have an awesome week my friend 🤠🙏🔪
Always a pleasure seeing you on here !! Thanks so much !!!!!! I’ll do a follow up vid later this season . I’m on a mission NOT to screw up the sheath . I want to treat it and give it a good coat that will darken the leather . Love this blade !! A bit on the heavy side but I’ll get used to it . So you like my Sunday’s best huh ?? Ya know if I could , I would like to see more men in this world wearing fedoras . Bring back the old days !!! Once upon a time , if a grown man was out in public and wasn’t wearing a fedora or some other hat , he would be so out of place . Today ??? I’m the one who’s out of place ! Haha 😂 I gotta be me 🤠🙏🔪😂
@@tubes5150 I almost always wear a hat mostly baseball or cadet style , I feel awkward without one and even if im not wearing it I always bring one with me. I need to get a good fedora and a good cowboy hat . I love your hats and you have great style , you may stand out but only in a good way. Recently I started carrying a bandana I was inspired directly by you , I never needed one before but I started thinking about people who have never carried a knife but when they start they are surprised how convenient it becomes to have one on hand . Looking forward to more of that Bowie. Thanks
Thanks so much for watching my brother . Took many years to finally add to the collection. I still want to treat the sheath but not sure of what to use . I want it darkened . I’m on a mission . Stay tuned for follow up video later on this year . 🤠🔪🙏
My Grail Knife ♥️ If not my favorite- it’s close !! What a beast of a blade !!!!!!!!! Some watchers here would like me to go out and demonstrate the knife but I’m too concerned about marking it up in any way . This a collectors piece that took me at least a decade to finally add to the collection. I want to keep it mint condition. I really don’t think I need to put it Thru the torture test haha ….. This company - Bark River Knives , are already well known and have proven time and time again just how great their knives are . Why should I have to prove it as well ?? Ya know what I mean ?? Some day I might use …. But not now . Thanks so much for watching 🤠♥️🙏🔪
Hey Dave !! So awesome to see you on here . Thanks so much !! Stay tuned for a follow up vid on this beauty …. I’m on a mission to treat the sheath … I want to make it darker too . Never did before so I’m on a mission . I don’t want to F it up !! I treated other sheaths like my KaBars USMC and USN sheaths …. But I didn’t exactly give a hoot about how they turned out . THIS one I will use sone TLC . On a mission my brother …. Thanks again for being here . Hope all is well with you and yours 🤠🔪🙏
Bark River is about as close as you can to a custom knife as own a few and they are well made knives ready to put in some good work and I like the sheaths....Good stuff...
I gotta treat that sheath. I want it darker . I never really tried to do that with any of my sheaths except the USMC KaBar . That turned out ok …. I absolutely DON’T want to mess this up so I gotta be careful. When I get time I’ll be watching “ How To “ vids . Hope all is well my brother . Over the moon with this beauty 🤠🔪🙏
Always a pleasure seeing you on here my brother . Hope all is well with you and yours. Thanks so much for watching and Happy New Year ( in case I didn’t say earlier ) 🎆🤠🔪🙏
This is one of those knives , that I compare with winning the Oscar haha 😂 “ I want to first Thank God … my wife and kids ….. blah blah blah “. Haha “ I’m Not Worthy “!!!!!!!!! Thanks so much for watching. Hope all is well with you and yours 🤠🙏🔪
Very nice blade! Also love the commercial for the Cowboy knife. I would've loved to see what the Barkriver can do, but understand that a Grail knife shouldn't go beyond a paper test.
Haha I’ll probably do a follow up at some point …. I mean it seems so solid and well built and could take on anything . Just don’t want to mark it up …… But we shall see . I’m debating ……… Thanks so much for being here 🤠🔪🙏
@Cowboy C Bop My pleasure! I sent you the link to my second video. The third is up too. If you lost the email, the first video is linked to the next and then the next. Let me know what you think. I did the Gil Hibben Extreme Survivor in the latest one.
Oh most definitely…. My favorite knife design . Gotta love it !! ( this one might be a little better than the World Famous Black Mule ). Haha 😂 Still love that knife 🤠
Oh Well Said My Brother 🤠🤠🤠 I absolutely concur . Now for the big question : Only took me decades to finally acquire, so do I use it or no ??? So Tuff to decide . Why would I ?? I think I enough to choose from . But I feel like it’s calling out to me yelling “ Come On Bop !!! Why do you think I was Made “??!!! Haha 😂 We shall see ….. Thanks again for being here 🤠🔪🙏
Happy new year my friend 🥳🍻 What a beautiful knife to beat the January blues! 😎 Love the single guard, it really suits the blade profile, and I like the way they have made the bolt-through tang in to a feature to be used as a skull/window smasher 😎 Grail knives are just the best - I finally got my Hibben Alaskan/Kempo2 , and it’s been out of the box every single day since Christmas ☺️ I have to ask, does your pastor think you are a wise-guy? Very sharp 😎😁 Here’s to more sharp shiny treasures in 2023 😎
Haha 😂 Well my wife said I looked like Brad Pitts Jesse James , going to the prom haha 😂 ( we had recently watched The Assassination of Jesse James by Coward Robert Ford ). I said “ I’ll take that “!!! Haha Yeah this is really something . This is one of those knives that’s like when an actor receives the Oscar . “ First I’d like to thank God . And my lovely wife at home blah blah blah “…. Haha Will treasure always bro !! Congratulations on that Hibben beauty 🎉🍾🎊🎆💥
I was stunned that the Kind folks at Knives Ship Free remembered me . It was definitely over a year ago when I submitted my order ( custom order ). So when they sent me that email - a year later - saying “ it’s ready “, I had to basically drop everything!! No bills got paid that week !!! Haha 😂 ( not the first time - won’t be the last ). Too old to worry about credit now . Damage is Done !! God Bless Us All ♥️🙏🤠
My Sunday’s best 😂😂😂 The Missus always gets embarrassed but hey - I gotta be me !!! Haha 😂 Hope all is well with you and yours my brother . Same Ol same Ol hear . I’ll definitely be in touch soon . Hello Jane 🤠🔪🙏♥️🎆
@@osbaldohernandez9174haha 😂 If you type in “ Inglorious Basterds Aldo Bowie Knife “, you will see that I’ve made quite a few videos . I think I have like 4 customs that were made of that particular knife . Plus some similar replicas . Probably my all time favorite design . Check out some of my old videos . Thanks so much my man . Really appreciate you being here 🤠
@@tubes5150 pretty awesome Brother 🦅🦅🦅🦅. Had to wish some of my old shipmates on the Chiefs and Bengals tonight. Either way I'm sure the SUPER BOWL will be awesome 👍👍👍👍💯💯💯💯
Watched ur is it good knife. Video one that rusted of all the Bowie's ect. Never. Apologies for long video unless it's on just one knife. Love your style . Soft hearted biker looken dude. Oh and that black hat was cool too. Sorry I write here I watch on another channel on big screen. Forgot password lucky it stayed on TV. 300 UTube videos of me and can't even get in anywhere else. So u got two subs from me and mostly watch there some here . HERE LET ME GET U BACK TO UR DAY lol. Love ya . Have a Sharp Day
My holy grail knife would have to be the Gil Hibben Magnum Bowie. That holy grail of yours looks awesome. And That is a nice hat that you are wearing. You look like you would belong in the brothers of the blade mafia Ha-Ha. Have a good evening.
Haha I love it !! My wife thought I was trying to impersonate Brad Pitts Jesse James character since we just recently watched that movie together . She said “ you look like Jesse James going to the prom “!!! Haha 😂 I said “ you’re not wrong !!!! But you’re not right either “. I was just being me . Maybe a little inspiration here and there haha 😂 That hat is what you call a Homburg . Only wear with my Sunday’s best .
@@tubes5150 I thought it looked like a homburg or a bowler hat. And yes I can agree with you wife saying you look like Jesse James. The resemblance looks incredible. Ha-Ha.
This has been on my wish list for over a decade . Finally achieved by getting one . Almost purchased used ones on eBay at various times . Either way too expensive- plus they were beat up . Glad I waited . Hope all is well with you and yours . Happy New Year 🎆🤠🔪
@@wnerko7484 They are really HOT !!!! Let’s hope that they take care of those KC chiefs !!! I can already predict that the game announcers are going to be bias towards Mahomes ( QB of KC ). They love him !! They never give my Eagles any credit !! Never !! Should be a great game . Heck I’ll bet they take Mahomes out of the game 🙏🙏🙏
I just posted another custom knife video . I had a lot of fun making this one . Called the True Grit Rooster Knife . It’s absolutely stunning !! Come check it out when you get a chance 🤠
As always you have some beautiful knives, but looks don’t mean shit. I have seen expensive knives fail and cheap one surprise the best and vis-à-vis. I wish you would torture test your knives.
Most of my knives go Thru the test . But not all . It all depends . This Shiny Mountain is indeed built like a tank so I’m sure it will perform any task . But for something that took me decades to acquire I’m not about to … just yet . Let me cherish for a while and then we shall see .
Also …. As long as most knives are treated like knives , they should last you a lifetime . No real reason to do anything other than slice and cut . Now in a survival situation, you may only have one blade to depend on . You will need to slice - cut - chop . Some blades just won’t make it . The cheapies will either break or chip . Not all - but some will . Hopefully you have a hatchet on you to get thru any chopping related tasks . Bottom line - Treat your knife like a knife . And carry a hatchet . Haha 😂
