Spyderco Subway Bowie

The Spyderco Subway Bowie, designed by renowned French custom knifemaker and martial artist Fred Perrin,  is an ultra-compact but remarkably capable fixed-blade knife. Its straight-clipped Bowie-style blade is saber ground from ultra-corrosion-resistant LC200N and has a bright satin finish. The fiberglass-reinforced-nylon (FRN) handle is injection molded directly onto the blade’s tang and features Perrin’s signature index-finger choil. A lanyard hole allows the easy attachment of the included paracord lanyard and works in concert with the choil and jimping (textured grooves) on the spine to ensure a secure, non-slip grip. Designed for convenient, discreet neck carry, the Subway Bowie comes complete with a custom-molded Boltaron® sheath and a breakaway ball chain.

The Subway Bowie is a faithful expression of Perrin’s handcrafted custom design executed with the benefit of an injection-molded handle and a state-of-the-art blade steel. The heart of the knife is its blade, which is crafted from LC200N, one of the premier steels of Spyderco’s popular Salt Series. This advanced, high-nitrogen alloyed tool steel is specifically formulated to offer extreme corrosion resistance and superior toughness, even at high levels of hardness.
