Knife handcrafted by Master C.IC. (Corporazione Italiana Coltellinai - Italian Knife-makers Guild) Livio Montagna. Excellent reproduction of one of the most iconic knives ever: the classic Bowie. A knife created by Rezin Bowie in the early 19th century for his brother Jim Bowie, the famous American pioneer whose rather reckless life is now shrouded in legend.

Livio Montagna's excellent craftsmanship does justice to this piece of history with its classic and timeless stylistic features: the double guard, the clip point blade, the handle in natural material.

Extrema Ratio is proud to present the Culter Venatorius that, so as not to contradict the current address is a technical knife, practical, perhaps a bit 'specialized and that gives a nod to tradition and to the tastes of the most traditionalist hunters who like to do everything yourself.

The Latin motto engraved on the blade reads:

"I am the hunting knife, I am the claw beak and fang of my master. My job is as old as the flesh and blood.", We find that describes significantly the pure essence of the instrument.

We feel to say that if a tool could be capable of humor probably would have added: "It 'a dirty job ... but someone has to do it ...".

The Culter Venatorius, more than a knife, is a complete equipment for slaughtering and skinning of medium and medium-large sized prey, suitable for ungulate hunters.

The kit includes: a knife to slaughter and general use, one skinner provided with cross handle to skin and clean the internal organs the animal, a carver to skin head and snout and a stone with two grains for regrinding of all instruments.

These accessories are contained in the sleeve pocket leather fat-crafted.

The sheath while maintaining the traditional lines, is completely reversible (both the pocket that the passer can be disassembled and applied on the other face of the sheath) and to secure the side which holds the knife has the ambidextrous release. The sheath is handmade by a master saddler leather first-aged choice.

And 'possible to bring the sheath is vertical to the belt connected to the leg, which in a comfortable horizontal position, the shoulder or stopped at the waist with a long belt kit with buckle and snap hooks.

The handle in cocobolo oiled is long enough to allow the use of the knife as a little machete or chopper and thin enough to allow precision cuts.

The blade is in the classic Bohler N690, an excellent steel chrome molybdenum vanadium and cobalt which deserved to become a standard in technical and professional cutlery.

The finish is satin.

The Culter Venatorius is dedicated to all those who wish an Extrema Ratio as batting partner.
