This is the Plainsman Bowie by Ash Blades. Also known as the Trail Boss, it's a no nonsense knife with a feel for the frontier. Built on a similar blade frame as the Serengeti Bowie, the Plainsman has a softer profile with its smoother lines and rounded edges.

The Plainsman Bowie features a straight-back “tiered” blade (for lack of a proper blade style) with a long straight cutting edge, a solid brass cross guard with a 1/3 knuckle bow, and a brass pommel. The handle is Black Walnut with buffalo horn spacers.

Unlike the Serengeti Bowie, the knuckle bow on the Plainsman has a smaller profile and contours around your hand smoothly.
