I have the Gambler, which I purchased at a Gun Show many years ago. I never used it for anything but I read things about Bill Bagwell and I saw it at that gun show here in Florida and it was Sunday afternoon with closing time was about 30 minutes away. This Vender had the Gambler Bowie, made by Ontario, priced at $250 but I decided to bargain with him because I felt that he really wanted to make a sale before closing time and I got it for $150. Every time I decide to sell it at a Gun Show, I take it out of the sheath, into my hand and then I change my mind! Just having it is a thrill to hold a great Bowie Knife!
They show up on eBay but you will pay for them unfortunately I got lucky with my gambler but the others with the hells bell guard are going to coast $4-600
Very nice! Been wanting one of these for a while now. I was going to get the Cold Steel Laredo but now they come with a crappy kydex type sheath. Which is just blasphemy in my opinion lol! Great video as always!
You have a point 😎 but you can have a sheath made and there are other sheath made of leather that fit it like a glove , so I'm hoping that GSM Cold Steel being it back in 01 tool steel os A2 tool steel 😎 along with the legendary Natchez Bowie.
A dagger that is sharp all the way on both sides is not a false edge it double edged or dule edged is it is only sharp on a small part of the Dagger blade on one side it not double edged but false edged as he started, but when it's sharp completely on both side of the Dagger is double edge like the Applegate Farbairn Combat ll Dagger 🗡️
I called bill Bagwell my self and got put on his list. hopefully by the end of September 2017 I will be struting around with a genuine Bagwell on my hip!!!!
@@h__n1092 He probably got it just before Mr. Bagwell passed on , his waiting list was 4 1/2 to 5 years 🎯 because his knives was in high demand as weapons and collectables. ⚖️🥇🎯🎖️🎯🥇⚖️
Since I am now entering the magical land of knives I wanted to ask you the following. Can these knives be seen useful with claims in a modern man's activity?
What would be a modern man’s activity? These knives are made for activities that include drawing blood not cutting twine or opting boxes . Indeed the need of this kind of tool is rear but sometimes in in certain circumstances they would be useful
Most production knives companies don’t use them the only ones I can think of is these and custom makers . Most people carry guns and if you can carry a gun their isn’t much use for a ccw Bowie

It’s possible bill is dead

Not according to historical sword fencing false edge simply means top edge when it comes to sword fighting
@@Hissatsu5 Okay I got my info of Wikipedia , your mostly correct,
Peace pal

I like the real world advice--"if somebody is fighting you with a piece of rebar"
Yup false edge is sharp and a swedge is not but a swedge can be turned into a false edge of so desired.
Good review dude
I called bill Bagwell my self and got put on his list. hopefully by the end of September 2017 I will be struting around with a genuine Bagwell on my hip!!!!

@@Hissatsu5 Even though I don't understand the terminology "drawing blood " you gave me an honest answer. Thank you.
@@arkas6797 theses are fighting knives and probably won’t come in handy unless your attack by a guy with a machete
such a nice knife.. i am looking for one of these for 2 years! already sold it?
Yes I sold it but thy show up on eBay on a some what regular basis
well i am looking on for them on all sites you could think off (they need to be able to send to belgium as well :/ )
+Jan From Belgium ya the overseas thing is probably going to be a issue I would try pm the seller and ask if thy would consider shipping to Belgium .
Yeah, i guess that would be my best option
How many times can the host say ugh in a paragraph ???
I don’t like it either it annoying but it seems to be a tick
I cannot find these sheaths.
Most production knives companies don’t use them the only ones I can think of is these and custom makers . Most people carry guns and if you can carry a gun their isn’t much use for a ccw Bowie
No Natchez
Love the Natchez Bowie and hoping it comes back by GSM Cold Steel.
