Western Outlaw Bowie
17 inches of pure intimidation.
The Western Outlaw Bowie isn't just a knife—it's the icon that put Timber Rattler on the map. When collectors and outdoor enthusiasts think of massive, affordable Bowie knives with authentic Western styling, they think of this blade.
Measuring an impressive 17 inches overall with a 12-inch surgical steel blade, the Western Outlaw delivers intimidating presence without the premium price tag. The full-tang construction ensures maximum strength, while the pakkawood handle with brass guard captures the essence of frontier America.
This is the knife that proves you don't need to spend $200+ for a quality Bowie. It's been our best-selling model for years, beloved by knife collectors who appreciate classic design, hunters who need a reliable fixed blade, and Western enthusiasts who want an authentic piece of Americana at an accessible price point.
Every Western Outlaw comes with a genuine leather sheath that develops character over time, adding to the knife's rugged authenticity. This is more than a tool—it's a piece of history you can own and use.

Learn MoreWhy These Models Have Remained Bestsellers for Years
These aren't just popular knives—they're icons that have stood the test of time. Here's why collectors, hunters, and outdoor enthusiasts keep coming back to these specific Timber Rattler models year after year.
Uncompromising Durability
Every knife in our signature series features full-tang construction with surgical steel blades. While critics might point out that surgical steel is softer than high-carbon alternatives, we see this as a feature, not a flaw. Softer steel means these knives are incredibly easy to sharpen—you don't need expensive equipment or professional skills to maintain a razor edge. For budget-conscious collectors and outdoor enthusiasts, this translates to knives that stay functional for decades with basic maintenance. The full-tang construction ensures maximum strength and durability even under heavy use.
Classic Design That Never Ages
In a world of tactical knives with aggressive styling and modern materials, our signature series embraces timeless Western aesthetics. Brass guards that develop a beautiful patina, wood and bone handles that feel natural in hand, genuine leather sheaths that improve with age—these are design choices that connect us to frontier America's knife-making heritage. Collectors appreciate knives that look like they belong in a museum, not a mall ninja catalog. This classic approach has kept these models relevant year after year, appealing to new generations who discover the beauty of traditional craftsmanship.
Accessible Premium Quality
The biggest reason these models remain bestsellers? They deliver $200+ knife aesthetics and functionality at prices that make collecting accessible. The Western Outlaw Bowie looks and feels like a custom piece that should cost three times its actual price. This "Affordable Power" philosophy means collectors can build impressive knife collections without bankruptcy, hunters can carry quality fixed blades without worrying about damage, and enthusiasts can gift beautiful knives without financial strain. When customers realize they're getting genuine quality at unbeatable value, they become lifelong Timber Rattler advocates.
Proven Performance in the Field
These aren't wall-hangers—they're working knives that customers actually use. Hunters have field dressed countless animals with our Skinner's Edge models. Campers have relied on the Classic Lockback for everything from food prep to emergency repairs. Outdoor enthusiasts have put the massive Bowie knives through brutal bushcraft tasks. The signature series has earned its reputation through real-world performance, not marketing hype. When a knife performs reliably season after season, word spreads, and that model becomes a bestseller that stays a bestseller.
The Signature Series isn't just a collection of popular knives—it's a testament to what happens when you prioritize customer value over profit margins, embrace timeless design over trends, and build knives that people actually want to own and use. These are the models that made Timber Rattler a respected name in the knife community, and they'll continue to be bestsellers for years to come.
