What Is A High-Relief Bowie Knife Blade?
High-relief blades are one of the more popular edge geometries for Bowie knives. They are made using a consistent angle from spine to tip. They are similar to a flat grind, but their angle reaches all the way across the blade instead of just from the beginning of the bevel to the edge. They have a very distinctive look and are favored by some collectors. They’re also of great practical value and many outdoor enthusiasts swear by them.
