The Bowie knife has evolved greatly over the years. Likely starting off as a heavy butcher knife modified to take on multiple tasks in the wilderness, it became the backup weapon of choice for frontiersmen until firearms became a reliable means of defending yourself. Every evolution of the knife capitalized on the lessons of the past, becoming sleeker and faster than the last. Ben Seward has continued this evolution, combining old world manufacturing with a modern outlook to create the Seward Bodyguard TAD Edition.

The Bodyguard is the result of Ben’s desire to create the largest, lightest knife that he could still conceal. Starting with a large piece of Damascus, the blade is differentially heat treated and finished to reveal the  striking pattern. Ben expertly crafts a profile with a long clip, acute point, and substantial belly and recurve into a single package. A hidden tang grants total freedom in the handle design, allowing for the perfectly contoured and swelled ironwood. The handle’s mid-hand notch, pinky catch and full guard make for a rock solid grip with few rivals. The full guard itself is sculpted from blasted stainless steel. The balance of the blade and handle design leave few tasks out of the Bodyguard’s reach

Knowing that how the knife is carried is just as important as the knife itself, Ben made a minimal footprint Kydex sheath. The sheath is designed for IWB carry with a custom made titanium J Hook.
