Camel Bone Bowies
Great knife set at a great price. Both knives are sturdy, sharp, beautiful, and well balanced. They exceeded expectations by a mile, and I have and will continue to carry them everywhere! So very beautiful!

Not so good on further inspection but still beautiful
They're good showpiece knives as long as you don't look at them too closely.
Pros:
- The leather sheath is beautiful.
- The handles are attractive and feel nice and smooth.
- The knives look well-crafted and stunning when you look at them from a few feet away.
Cons:
- When I examined the edges of both blades they were nicked in several places and uneven. It's as if someone had carelessly used these knifes or the manufacturer did not smooth the blade edge enough.
- The larger blade actually cuts into some of the sheath when you sheath it. It's like the sheath was designed for a smaller knife.
- When my knives arrived there was a light coating of something sticky on the knives and sheath. I don't know what it was but I cleaned it up easily.

Outstanding quality for the price.
I really didn't expect much as these are common Pakistani made knives, BUT. After close examination these are made quite nicely. They are not perfect, but very close. Mine arrived very sturdy, and nothing loose. The handles look very much like Ivory, which I like a lot. The blades were both marked, " made in Pakistan " at the top, and Timber wolf at the hilt. I found with some 600 grit wetdry sandpaper the blades could be polished to a mirror finish, easily erasing the Pakistani, and trademark. Afterwards the knives appear to be old handmade Ivory handled Bowies. I intend to Dye the Sheath Black for more contrast and beauty. These are too pretty to use, I plan on displaying them in my extensive collection.

Great Knife set!
OK. I had to send back my first order because the bigger Bowie did not fit in the sheath as it should have, and there were some defects with the bone handle and overall poor craftsmanship. I sent them back, no questions asked! No hassles! I received my second set, and was totally satisfied with it! As the review below, "Disappointed" says, these knives are so, so beautiful! For the price, you can't go wrong! Sure, the sheath is a 2.5-3.0, but the knives themselves are a solid 4.8-5.0, they're right up there! I am overall very pleased with these knives, and would recommend them.

Disappointed
The only thing that saved this knife set from getting 1 start rating from me was that the knives look beautiful and they came very sharp out the box. Other wise the sheath did not secure the larger knive at all. The snaps were lose and flimsy and if I turn the sheath upside down the knife would fall out. Also on the larger knife the gaurd was extremely lose and the blade would rattle as if it was lose when I would tap my knuckle on it. The smaller one rattled as well but the gaurd on that was good

Outstanding
Great set for the price. Very heavy and the sheath is worth the price alone. Does not come very sharp but with a little work I got it shaving sharp

A beautiful set of knives
When I recd these knives I was truly suprised. They are more attractive than the picture. After I sharpened them I could have shaved with them. Well made and nice sheave. Blade holds edge well. Absolutely worth the price.
