LKW City Bowie Micarta Knife by Radosław Łęgowik - Brown
A robust camping knife built with a Full Tang design, equipped with a brown Micarta handle. Outfitted with a broad blade forged from Bohler K720 O2 tool steel, perfectly suited for a variety of bushcraft activities and outdoor culinary use. Crafted and designed by Polish knifemaker Radosław Łęgowik.
Polish design
Radosław Łęgowik, a skilled Polish knifemaker and the founder of the LKW - Libra Knife Works brand, has been crafting hand-made knives since 2007, working exclusively from his own original designs. Each knife is meticulously produced in his workshop, where he personally oversees every stage, including quenching and heat treatment. His selection features modern tactical knives as well as robust survival knives, all designed for maximum functionality.
O2 Bohler K720 tool steel
Crafted from high-carbon O2 Böhler K720 tool steel and hardened to 59 HRC, the blade delivers outstanding performance. The careful selection of steel, combined with expert heat treatment, ensures exceptional durability, crack resistance, and superior edge retention. Furthermore, sharpening is straightforward even in field conditions, making it an excellent choice for bushcraft and outdoor applications.
Bowie profile, wide blade, full flat grind
Featuring a 120 mm long and 4.5 mm thick blade, the knife boasts a classic Bowie profile with a prominently pronounced belly, enhancing the cutting performance of the tool. The blade incorporates a flat grind, contributing to a lighter overall weight, while the design delivers optimal ergonomics for effective handling. A precise and notably thin cutting edge defines its craftsmanship. The blade's unique geometry provides outstanding slicing capabilities, making it well-suited not only for general outdoor use but also for camp kitchen duties. An additional false edge along the top of the blade increases penetration power and forms a fine, sharp tip suited for tasks that demand exceptional accuracy.
The lower section of the handle incorporates a cross guard, effectively preventing the hand from slipping forward onto the blade.
Handle made of Micarta, lanyard hole
Designed for optimal ergonomics, the handle is crafted from Micarta—a highly durable, water-resistant material based on epoxy resin—offering a reliable and secure hold in any situation. A lanyard hole is integrated at the end of the handle.
Rigid Kydex sheath, belt loop
Constructed from lightweight and impact-resistant Kydex, the set comes with a robust sheath. Multiple openings and slots on both sides of the sheath enable versatile mounting options on your gear. A dedicated loop on the rear side allows for secure belt attachment.
