Ogre Spike Bowie “Finished”
Finally “finished” my Ogre Spike Bowie today! Going to carry and use it now since the handle feels great in hand and the long blade will cut. Had fun with the name on the blade and the “Ogre Eyes” near the spikey tip!
Ogre Spike Bowie With Blue And Black Handle
The Ogre Spike Bowie with a much more fitting handle. Recently saw different colored electrical tape at the closest Bucees to me so tried out that! The result is a much better handle that will stay together and customizable with different colors. Furthermore, you can increase the amount of tape …
Ogre Spike With Paracord Handle!
The Ogre Spike Bowie with a better wrapped handle. The Spike also cuts now, but still needs to be ground thinner. The Bowie tip already works like a champ through stuff like cardboard since it is still very thick there. Also posted my first video on my YT channel on …

GEC: Best Traditional Slip Joints Today
For some things, old school is still cool! Take carbon steel slip joints as a great example of this. Despite all the modern folders sporting high technology and super stainless steels, carbon steel slip joints from GEC sell out in a matter of minutes, if not seconds, every time they …
What Case Knives Mean To An Ogre!
Recently got back into Case knives last year, when I bought the Tony Bose Sowbelly at the SMKW Case Virtual Event for 2020. Been a Tony Bose fan ever since. However, my first into in Case was by my grandfather. He used to carry an old yellow Case Stockman (the …
