Phil Evans is a highly respected custom-knife maker and member of the American Bladesmith Society.

The massive forged 5160 blade is over 10” long and 3/8” thick at the spine and features forged “S” type guard, iron hardware and a premium stag handle.

To complement the Bowie knife design, Humble incorporated beaver tail inlay and antique bronze spots and added horsehide lining throughout the sheath.
