I just finished a copy of an oridginal knife that I was able to measure. It is in Madison Grants book K in H. A...the blade is 12" long 16 3/4" overall
Joe did a great job on copying this original Bowie style fighting knife. Note that the handle is inverted, the knife is meant to be held cutting edge up.
Fixed blade knives are important because they're sturdy enough and will hold up to lots of use. Fixed blade knives are generally hunting knives (such as the sturdy and popular bowie knife), and you will want to have one or several, depending on the type of game you're hunting. shieldon knives
