Auxiliary Manufacturing Pocket Bowie
The Pocket Bowie is Auxiliary Manufacturing's flagship knife: a compact, full-tang clip point bowie with a modified recurve, handmade by Mike Jarvis in Reno, Nevada. Handmade versions use AEB-L steel with G-10, stingray wrap or paracord handles and a Kydex sheath.
The Pocket Bowie Slim is a thinner version, the XL has a 4" blade, and the Deadhead Pocket Bowie is the more affordable production version in 14C28N.
