Customers like the quality of the sporting goods. They say it's a strong, sharp, reliable knife that's pretty badass. The handle is nice and the sheath is equally well made. The knife is made of good quality stainless steel and holds an edge nicely. Some say it is larger than they thought and is impressive.

Not bad for under $20 BudK Jungle Bowie Knife
I bought it for my father in law for his birthday. I wanted him to so his Crocodile Dundee that's a knife impression and he did. He seems happy with it. The sheath it came with is kind of cheap plastic though. The box was just a black box so I printed some Dundee stickers and threw them on there to dress it up a bit for show. It's all about presentation with me.

I purchased this knife for my husband because the price was right and he thinks he can never have to many hunting knives. The knife arrived quickly and he seemed to like it and it came out of the box sharp but being the skeptic he is he had to try it out first. He took it deer hunting this past year and was happy with the way the knife performed in the field. My husband has larger hands and he was able to get a good comfortable grip on the knife although he said when the handle got saturated with the deer it was a little harder to hold on to the handle became slick, but he put on a glove and finished the task with no problem and the knife stayed sharp. My daughter was also impressed with the knifes performance, it assisted her in clearing branches from the deer stands and ground blinds. Her hands a much smaller then my husbands but using it she said the knife felt comfortable and secure in her grip. So for the price and quality you can not lose with this knife it is a good all around wood's knife. It also is very attractive which helped in my purchase decision.

Of course made in China like a lot of things now; still it IS a Gerber knife and a damn good one too! It's a huge Bowie, well balanced, sharp enough to shave with out of the box and heavy-duty enough for most field work as well as hunting and self defense!
Like a lot of Gerbers it's made from AUS 8 stainless steel like the Steadfast and BMF before it. It is full tang down to the lanyard hole; the tang narrows a bit but is full tang.
Chinese labor kept the price down, not the material and remember AUS8 stainless comes from Japan in the first place and is great knife steel (http://www.midwayusa.com/content/HowToGuides/knife_steel_and_handle_material_chart.htm)
and has a Rockwell rating of 57/58. Cold Steel also uses it.
The sheath is good Guaita heavy duty nylon and is like many of the Gerber HD sheathes, will last a long time. Don't let the price fool you. Inexpensive, not cheap. Don't let the negative comments sway you! You get a tough field knife with this!

Please Note: (March 2015) This review is for the timber rattler "sinful spiked" bowie knife. For some reason, the listing has been changed to to the winchester bowie knife, and the reviews for the timber rattler bowie are still being displayed. Please keep in mind that this review, and many of the other reviews here have nothing to do with the quality and consumer experiences attached to the winchester bowie knife.

I prefer only full tang blades and couldn't find any information that confirmed this knife was full tang. After looking all over the internet for a review, the only one it seems was ever written just said,"could be bigger,good knife for the price"...that didn't help me much. So I looked at an enlarged photo of the knife and saw metal running up the middle of the entire handle; I thought it must be full tang, so I ordered one. The handle is one piece of solid metal, I'm not sure that it's steel, but it's sturdy. The wood grips are more reddish and high quality than the picture implies. It looked at first like the blade was full tang, so with the knife firmly in hand I knocked the handle hard with my knuckles and heard/saw the blade rattle slightly, so it's not a full tang blade. Either way, the blade is surrounded on all sides by the handle, so if it were to get loose inside, there's nowhere for it to go, unless it just falls out.

The blade is razor sharp and the metal description on the blade says "stainless steel handcrafted in china". Anything that says "made in china" makes me worry and the blade feels thin and somewhat fragile. The sheath, however, is excellent. The nylon is tough and fits the knife perfectly; it is very well made. Please note that this is a sawback knife so unsheathing it takes time and care, so I can't recommenda it for a personal defense knife. In conclusion, until somebody thoroughly tests this knife and posts the results, I'll be babying it. It's a cool knife, I just wouldn't go whacking at trees limbs or rocks with it. If you're like me and you expect everything you buy to get it done, you should just get a confirmed solid/full tang blade. I'm no metal expert, but it's one of those knives that makes you scared the blade will break in half if it hits something stout. This metal's great for a pocketknife, but not for a bowie.

Bin etwas enttäuscht. Der Griff ist kein Holz sondern irgendeine Kunststoffmischung (Pakelit od. ähnlich.)
Die Qualität des Stahles kann ich nicht beurteilen.
