"Received my Bowie knife and fid today. It is a beautiful knife and well worth the price. It is robust so I'm confident it will last me many years! Adding the personal note was a nice touch." - Bill

Thanks for your kindwords Bill... muchappreciated and I'm glad you're pleased with the kit. This configuration has been popular at our local shop here in the Keys, but we only recently put it up on our website. The Bowie blade does well for rigging but our home port of Key Largo is a special (if somewhat rowdy) place at times... in between sailing there's just as much drinking, fishing and fighting going on... but not necessarily in that order... same as it ever was! And so to make a long story short, the kit you selected is able to accommodate all of the above, with great efficiency. Good choice, sir, and may it serve you well, always!...🙂
Your friend,

Ed Morris
