Uncle Henry 184STUH Stag Handle Bowie Knife Review

[@Timothy_Jones]

Good gracious what a cool blade! I'm turning 50 this year and I could use another really cool blade! I grew up watching old Westerns with my Dad, this blade speaks to me!!!! Thanks!

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Me too

[@lylesmith6304]

Great knife. The only problem that I have is the low quality steel. It is very nice in every other aspect. Thank you for your evaluation.

[@oldpup4810]

And how about Jim Bowie, he's the one that invented it. :) Funny thing, back when I went to Jim Bowie Elementary School in the Dallas Texas area, they had a replica of his knife in the show case of the school. Kidos parents would totally freak out over something like that today.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Sad but true

[@meccagold2009]

He didn't invent it. Now everyone will get mad.

[@mt_baldwin]

His brother did or his brothers knife maker did or something like that if I recall correctly. The other version, which I believe, is that it was simply a butcher knife that had a false edge added to it. The butcher knife would have looked like an old hickory butcher knife which if you reshape the tip a bit on those to have a false edge and a swept back tip hey presto it's a Bowie knife! The second version doesn't make the first one false either.

[@wdj4583]

Mt. Baldwin apparently it was made by a guy by the name of James black, I know Wikipedia is not to be trusted but it says it on there

[@janisukanen884]

Great review as always! I agree, no use changing any part of your testing routine.I like the consistency, gives comparable results. Your reviews and testing are always a blast to watch. Why fix something that is not broken. Oh, that Uncle Henry is one handsome knife. Maybe slightly large for my taste but looks awesome. Classic beauty. Big thumbs up Bryan!

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+Jani Sukanen I have not met a knife too large for my taste.

[@wheelsgonewild1286]

This has got to be one of my most favourite knives I have seen you test. I fell in love with this one. I am going to pick it up right away.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

So did I

[@wheelsgonewild1286]

Just ordered it my friend.

[@76unclefester]

keep things the way they are . That is one of the best looking bowie knives I have seen in a while.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

It is pretty cool

[@joeframo3347]

Hello buddy really appreciate your presentation on this knife that is one beautiful knife I got to have one thank you for sharing this video

[@bobconar2222]

I'll cast my vote on your presentation style. For me (I'm in my upper 60's, although out of the loop in outdoor skills), I'll repeat some of what I said once. I deeply enjoy your videos. I thank you for the time you put in to the presentations (realizing that you likely enjoy the heck out of what you do). I don't think you will change much if any. The details you provide give me several perspectives on the item you are presenting. Again, thanks!

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Thanks. I appreciate it.

[@oldgoat8861]

Your Testting facility is the best out there......demonstrates real world experiences!!! Great review.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Thanks

[@estima8tor1]

I really like the look of traditional knifes - and who doesn't love a Bowie! When you live right on the coast of the Atlantic Ocean you learn to appreciate the qualities of stainless steel very quickly.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

good point

[@Dan-sq5cv]

I like my carbon steel knives, but also like my Stainless knives as well. Stainless comes in many different flavors and carbon content varies widely by type, so today you can get SS with quite a bit of carbon in it. However heat treat is probably even more important to how the blade preforms. And by the way if people want to stay traditions, get an Old Hickory butcher knife, that is very similar to what the mountain men actually carried. The Old Hickory is very well heat treated 1095 carbon steel and is a steal at the price, and I have one of them also. Great review thumbs up!

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+Dan 101 good points

[@MaZEEZaM]

Would you suggest this knives quality is STAGgering?

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Groan

[@motomark9736]

Junk workmanship is terrible

[@beginnerbushcraftertooley7095]

I agree with some of the steel comments. I have both stainless and carbon. My job puts me in wet environments so I edc a stainless I do carry or have available my carbon as well. Like you I do carry a designated striker for my flint. Good reviews keep up the enhancements to your studio and keep up the good work thank you.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Thank you

[@ArcheryDad2024]

That's a nice Bowie knife for sure. I've wanted a bowie for a while, think I'll be adding this to my Amazon list. Thanks for another great review Bryan.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

It is a nice one.

[@jairuskent439]

Gotta love the chuck Norris facts! My favorite mountain man type movie is Jeremiah Johnson. You made me wanna go watch it again.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

One of my favorites too.

[@KTappleguy]

Keep the same routine , I love it

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Thanks

[@stringsteene]

I like your testing regimen. It is a baseline and hope you keep it. It is helpful.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Thanks!

[@keithwaite5026]

Just watched this and have now ordered it, always wanted a big Bowie ⚔️👊

[@doomsdaymachine619]

That one is above average for uncle henry. I think it's a attractive functional knife. I am getting that one. I like stainless. It's durable in the moist conditions I am in. Uncle henry uses a good temper and edge. Good enough for me.

[@cedarcreekbushcraft6942]

Love your common sense take on what David Crockett would have carried if he were alive today.. While I do appreciate the older technologies and skills ( which I do practice) I do believe there is nothing wrong with taking the advantage of the newer ones...

[@jamesmcgee2447]

👍🏻👍🏻 I like your testing facility upgrade. 😊

[@motomark9736]

I bought one and needs work when you buy it . I went out and chopped on a log for about two minutes and the scales were loose also there was about a 1\8 inch of apoxy between the Tang and scale on one side and the scales weren't matched at all

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Bummer

[@motomark9736]

I put bigger pins in it 3/16 pins and red liners now it's fixed it does hold a great edge and takes a razor edge good knife

[@fulldrawoutdoors1685]

I think of the exact thing when I see a Bowie knife I stile watch them in 2016 love the old stuff been watching it since I could watch TV didn't care much for cartoons when I was little just liked watching thw old stuff love your videos to

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

I used to get up every Saturday morning and watch old Tarzan movies. Johnny Weismuller was my favorite. And Jungle Jim. And Sea Hunt. Oh, and Daniel Boone and Mingo. Can't forget them. But I have to admit, I still watched cartoons too. Roadrunner was my favorite and probably still is.

[@sunkist3575]

Nice Bowie, good review as always. Gotta love Bowie knives. Like you I've admired them since I was a kid. I have a 40 yr old Western Bowie that will be an heirloom. This Schrade may be my working Bowie. Thanks.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+James Whistler they are just cool

[@sunkist3575]

I just ordered one thru your Amazon link☺

[@SeaCatFl]

Beautiful looking knife. While it's not my style, (Too large) I can and do admire it's aesthetics. Keep up the same types of reviews. It sets, as you put it, a Benchmark. I like that. Ed

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

I will. Thanks

[@adrianeyre3630]

Hi what I don't seem to understand is why carbon steel is expensive ?

[@prdanpr8299]

chuck noris gives freddy krueger nightmares

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Yep ;-)

[@XaBadMojoX]

LoL !!!

[@stevelewis7263]

Do you know where this was made

[@CJ-bb2gs]

On the strength of this review.. I bought one of these.. It arrived the other day.. Now That's A Knife..

[@KB1FUA1]

Where is the notch in the choil?

[@joeframo3347]

Well I'm really enjoying your videos I could see how excited you are I would be flabbergasted holding that knife in my hand that is one beautiful knife the 181 is a nice knife with that Bowie knife is the greatest that is one beautiful knife I'm ordering mine from Amazon I'll have it tomorrow or the next day thank you so much for sharing I never knew that they made it Bowie knife until today

[@stevelucier8346]

My first the blade was shaped nearly exactly like that but just under 7". A superb chopper. Used the heck out of it from 1969 to 2001/02. I just can't find one to replace it with a handle set up the way I want it. lol Maybe I should just give up and buy one from Schrade like that one. It's not like that one can disappoint me. And yes I do prefer carbon steel but not to the point of avoiding SS.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

i wear mine a lot

[@sgbradley]

I'm very picky when it comes to knifes no matter what they look like or co$t and thats 1 I'd buy for sure.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

It is cool

[@paulie4x1]

Say Heah Brain, Boy was I lucky. Because I took my time ordering my Becker Bundok BK-20 because I already had the BK-4 and BK-5 that was in the Limited Edition, But since I really like my BK-4. and BK-5 I pulled the trigger and I was told I was the last one to get atleast where I got it. I waited thinking I'll wait for the price to go down when it sold by itself. But then I was at my Forum when Ethan informed us that once the 450 kits were sold, That there won't be anymore left and that the BK-4 and BK-5 would also be discontinued also. As large as the Old Timer Bowie is, The BK-20 Bundok has almost a 11 " blade, and yet my Busse Combat Anneversay Straight Handle Battle Mistress LE is longer, They BK-20 is also a 1/4" thick. The handle is very comfortable as all Beckers are. But I like Bowies too, So Thanx for sharing, It's nice enough to look into it, Thanx, Brain.

[@richardweilandt3315]

Gorgeous Bowie

[@bearkiller-hm2zo]

Have u tested the blades tip strength. Wld b interesting i worry it wld snap off batoning or bending with jeneral use

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

I don't do tip tests. I don't consider that general use.

[@bearkiller-hm2zo]

How is the tip of a knife not considered a high essential part of a bowie knife. Ur able to baton because of a sharp tip thats strong.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

I didn't say it was not an essential part of the knife. I just don't consider stabbing into something and prying with it to see if you can break it "general use". I have only done that with a very few knives that are marketed as true 'Survival knives", such as the First Edge 5050. I know a lot of folks do "tip testing", I just don't think it is a reasonable test on many knife designs. To each their own I guess.

[@toddk9044]

Wonder how this bowie compares to the Schf45 and the combo set. Just a thought! :)

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

I think it is better than the combo set and just different than the 45. This one is more traditional.

[@mr.delacruz559]

nice review and Beautiful knife! For the money would you buy this knife or shrades Leroy? I know they're sister companies and I noticed Leroy was cheaper.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

It really depends on what you like. The Leroy is probably better for harder use but this one is definitely more traditional.

[@alarsenault1681]

I didn't know you can go thru amazon ca Brian I order a lot of knifes thru them I just got a bushcraft black I will make sure to go through your store from now on that I know it awesome video like always thankyou sir

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+al arsenault I appreciate it. Yeah, I have links in the video description to all the international Amazon sites I could find.

[@alarsenault1681]

Awesome Brian we would love to help by going thru your store☺

[@LJxYTV]

What's the grind angle on this one? Might have missed it in the video

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Hollow and sharp ;-)

[@glenmo1]

Fantastic review on a fantastic knife.. while I like modern design knives and military knives... I love traditional designs traditional hunting knives traditional Bowie knives..(I know Bowies real personal knife did not look like the modern version but that's okay).. so glad this knife brings back many memories of movies and TV shows from my childhood Daniel Boone Davy Crockett... The mountain men... I'm so glad that Uncle Henry used real stag instead of plastic! $99 for this knife is a fantastic value! Not something I'm going to be toting in the woods looks kind of large and heavy but I would like to get one just for my collection... Yeah occasionally I might have it on my hip out in the woods... This may also be a good knife for reenactors you know the guys who take black powder flint.lock muskets and act out recreations..?.. also the single action association guys.. compete with the old fashioned single action antique guns....

[@Stivusregal]

Thinking of getting a Bowie knife for utility and survival, looking for reccomendations

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

So many to choose from.

[@Stivusregal]

would you reccomend this knife

[@mmbaptist1]

Good morning Brian. Please let me make what I feel is an important suggestion for many of us dummies. SUGGESTION!! showing knives is a great thing, HOWEVER a video on HOW NOT TO USE A KNIFE then with each dangerous situation please show correct options to do the same cutting job. Tks. MikeC aka Bro. 2Hair

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

This isn't exactly what you asked but it is close. kzbin.info/www/bejne/l6SspmaerduEgsU

[@annoyedonion1835]

what makes a bowie knife a bowie knife because when I was younger I thought it meant it had a hollow handle (normally with stuff inside) but I know that's not true so what is the diffrence between a normal knife and a bowie knife

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

basically the blade shape. And they are usually big.

[@annoyedonion1835]

Survival On Purpose ah thank you have been wondering that for a while

[@slowtaknow]

omg i just bought one of the last two. you made me do it.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+woodcraft camper ;-)

[@slowtaknow]

+Survival On Purpose update on the bowie, i received it bent and returned it for a refund. i would have replaced but the handle is really uncomfortable.

[@boredom9999]

comparing Schrade SCHF45 to this Uncle Henry 184STUH. Would the Schrade do just as well functionally? It is much less expensive.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Functionally? Sure. they both are knives. The Uncle Henry just has a more traditional styling.

[@mlsknnr]

I collect Bowie knives and that would be a nice addition to my collection. For practical purposes and field work, I believe that I would prefer a different handle material.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+mlsknnr Yeah, but it is cool

[@georgev5620]

Are you sure that the handle scales are deer antler? I bought one of these and absolutely love it. I am having doubts about whether the handles are antler or plastic. They are so smooth and shiny, almost translucent, that they look like they might be plastic. I didn't think antler could look like that, but I haven't seen many. I'm not sure how to determine. Thought about heating a pin red hot and poking it to see if it melts or burns. Hate to damage it that way, though. What do you think?

[@rebelyell2741]

Great video. But I’m not paying $120. For 7cr17. Even with real stag handles.

[@bearkiller-hm2zo]

Is this knife a durable knife. Im curious if the steel is a good hard steel. Does it feel btr made then the 181

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+bear killer 4570 it is stainless

[@royphelps8084]

Schrade, old timer , made 1 different handles , but blade shape about the same pattern, I got it .

[@dofishbuster]

You show everything most folks do or should at the most do with a knife without actually attempting to break the knife by doing something you should not. Keeping all the things the same does indeed allow folks to compare the knives. About the only thing I can see that is beyond the norm would be the balance test. Of course that does show the toughness of the knife.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

That part ain't going nowhere (as we say in Georgia)

[@dofishbuster]

LOL I understand it is way too much fun doing that test.

[@jsmitty2047]

That's not a knife.....This is a knife!... I don't know what it is but I really enjoy your videos and reviews, keep em coming.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Thanks!

[@toma674]

Yeah but would Mick Dundee approve..I think so. I always enjoy your approach to reviewing..don't change what works.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

I think so too

[@pavelkvak9852]

Hi, can you please tell me, if its by your experience a big difference in performance between Shrade Uncle Henry 184 and 181? I watch your videos about both, but you have real experience, so I ask. I want some big knife for outdoor and hunting tasks, mainly for bush clearing, light-medium chopping, fire wood preparation and some other bushcraft tasks. I already have Ka-Bar Cutlass and Kukri and they both performed well, but now I want sometning more traditional. So what do you thing, which one is better for hunting/outdoor tasks - 181 or 184 ( I mean basic models with staglon handle)? Which one would you choose and why? Thanks in advance for your answee and good luck.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Honestly, it depends on which one you like. The 184 has a better blade shape for chopping in my opinion but the 181 has a better handle for chopping tasks. The 184 handle is revere tapered so it wants to slide out of your hand a little bit when chopping.

[@pavelkvak9852]

Survival On Purpose Hi, thanks for quick answer...so I try model 181, hope it will serve me well . Thank you again and have a nice day. Best regards. Pavel

[@ThomasSecrest]

Would really like to hear your thoughts after you have spent a weekend in the woods the knife hanging off your belt. Things like edge retention, did the sheath scratch easily, did you switch to a secondary knife for some tasks (if so which ones), was it comfortable to hike with it on your belt, or did you end up stuffing it in your pack, did people hiking on the trail see the knife and call 911 -- all of this would be good to know. So if you take it for a spin, I hope you will update us. Cheers,

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

That would be cool but I have to be honest. I have so many knives to test they don't all get the chance to play in the woods with me. I'll see what I can do, but no promises.

[@elcharruagaucho]

By chance do you have any experience with Grohmann knives produced in Pictou, Nova Scotia?

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

None at all but they look cool

[@charlescollier7217]

That is indeed a big, ole, honkin' knife! Thanks for the review as always Bryan!

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

My favorite kind ;-)

[@charlescollier7217]

Survival On Purpose Mine too...lol. Probably part of why I am so drawn to machetes.

[@bearkiller-hm2zo]

Is the knife steel a hard good durable quality though. Btr than wallmart steel???

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+bear killer 4570 has to say. I have not had a problem with the Chinese steels

[@williamconfer9784]

Thanks Brian for video.. you did a great job on video. Bill

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Thanks

[@matarese2868]

Wow that looks like a beautiful knife

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+KoopaTrooper 17 I think so

[@nakoawarrior3186]

I like that knife. Think about it they went from bronze to steel. So there's nothing wrong with stainless. My knive's mostly cut meat. But that knife could easily make a bow and arrows Great video.

[@JAB671]

I see what you are saying about advantages of some, modern things. Still, I don't know that all 'advances' are really advances. IMO, biscuits shouldn't come out of a can and sheath knives should be made of high carbon steel. The handle scales look really nice, though.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

If you lived in a rain forest you might think otherwise. I just like knives. Period.

[@JAB671]

+Survival On Purpose Ha! Actually, where I live in East Tennessee is considered to be a (temperate) rain forest zone but I get what you are saying. Like I said, it certainly is a nice looking knife and, yeah, knives in general are fun.

[@JAB671]

Oh, and I meant to say that the consistency of tasks and tests you do with knives is one of the things I like most about your videos.

[@trentonburbank9327]

Is the stag handle and leather sheath worth the extra cost (nearly double) of the 184UH?

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

That would be an individual decision.

[@magicshon]

A testing routine is great to compare knives HOWEVER if the routine is too simple it doesnt show much since nearly all the knives pass with no problem... I used to watch a few knife channels that did a little bit more "destructive" testing and one could easier see the differences. a few ideas you could still do that belong do knives tasks are 1) testing the tip, its usually the weak point of knives, stab and pry on a wood, dril holes etc. i had a few cheap knives break their tip on me after just stabbing it and prying a little to get it out. 2) cutting / stabbing harder materials like wires or thin steel plates, that really shows edge and tip retention and lock quality with folders 3) cutting plastic, like bottles etc.. one can really see sharpness there and if a knife can cut even through the hard plastic of the cap or the neck of the bottle you know its sharp and tough. Anyway keep it up, its a great channel to watch

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

+magicshon I am not a fan of tip tests. I honestly think it is just a good way to prove that most knives can be broken. I know some knives can take it but I don't think that just because a knife can't it makes it a bad knife. Just my opinion.

[@Rod1Malkin]

Thanks for Great Video!!! Just got mine... Even better looking, feeling, etc. in person ... Seems like knife 3x the price e.g. Puma. I have a few other bowie knives, more expensive, and this one just jumps out as authentic, real, i.e. just 'right'. Astonishing, and inexpensive enough to be an active user, thrower, chopper etc. in the mountains and back at camp. Watch out, Grizzly's and Mountain Lions! God's Love, Great Outdoors!

[@annapeterson5897]

Clip point could be sharpened for backcuts. Beautiful knife.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

It could

[@attilacristiannemeth8206]

Beautiful shape this knife. I love IT.

[@user-yd6qq5pr7c]

Cool but I can't think of when I would use it other then for fun.

[@XaBadMojoX]

You're right. I have bunches of large knives including BK7 & BK9. I've never used them except to play around, chopping & batoning. I don't even build a fire with the processed wood. When I do have occasion to use them like clearing my fence line. I normally go for a machete or axe. Or Chainsaw. I just like collecting knives. By the way, My wife hates it. :-)

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Fun is good

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

I hear you.

[@user-yd6qq5pr7c]

I still want one.

[@callumfinlayson7649]

Keep the same routine, it does give a good benchmark between each knife. However, for the close ups and such I think you should have a look at some tech channels and see how they showcase phones - b-roll with voice overs. Your hands are a bit wobbly. Love your channel, keep up the good work :D

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

I actually usually do something like that but it just takes so long in editing I'm trying to speed up my process. And those bigger channels have a bigger budget for mini dollies and stuff.

[@thowe7988]

EDC/Mantel piece awesome knive,good reporting....

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Yeah, and just cool.

[@tonysalmail]

nice one - could collect but not carry around the city!

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

I can imagine the looks you would get.

[@phillo1818]

That Uncle Henry Bowie is a beautiful knife, it's also the first time I've seen it reviewed so thank you. Those curls were fantastic, like I always say a stupid sharp large blade can do (almost) everything outdoors and campy if one's skill set is up to it. Your upgraded facilities are outta this world. I know that R&D Benjamin's are few and far between, but y'all might want to beaver drag some branches and such into the Camp Facility to further support doing knife stuff. Nice added touch with the knife throwing in the intro! BTW the Uncle Henry Bowie Combo set is just survivors porn on a sheath, lol.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

;-)

[@galmurmur8240]

Always good reviews.

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Thanks

[@Jesusandbible]

Some knives are more like short swords, or a long shaped axe. depends how big your hands are. I collect knives. Bone handled are a fave. A Bowie gives you a chance against wolves, feral dog attack, etc.

[@ricev7071]

Can you do a review on the Mtech Extreme Raptor Bowie knife?? You will find that's probably the largest and thickest knife around, but not only that, it's made out of very good steel and extremely sharp. I bought one recently and I absolutely love it. If you truly love knives and want an affordable, excellent quality Bowie knife, then look no further than the Raptor Bowie from Mtech. This knife comes very sharp and can take anything you throw at it, I highly doubt you'll be able to throw this knife!!!

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

We'll see

[@Arannez]

Thanks, just bought one.

[@ROE1300]

Very nice knife, very good review. Regarding your knife testing; I agree that consistent test methods are the way to go, I one heard Ethan Becker say that he uses a new knife to whittle a tent stake as this task checks the carving/slicing ability, the notching ability as well as the ability to chop a long stick into small sticks. With a Bowie Knife it is probably best to ask yourself if Jim Bowie would be pleased with it rather than David Crockett or Daniel Boone, just sayin'. 😀

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Becker at SHOT Show this year. He is a cool guy to talk to.

[@markstanton63]

That thing is massive! When does a 'knife' become a 'sword'?

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

Good question

[@markstanton63]

Although I wouldn’t buy a Bowie knife, just don’t need one, arhat is a beautiful knife.

[@jamescooper2618]

Sure, they could very well make the blade from a high quality, indestructible carbon steel. If it brought the price up from 95 dollars to 195 or more, how good would that be? I could not afford it, tell you that much. Nice review!

[@williamp3780]

Love the reviews, don't change a thing. I'm gonna go broke watching your videos lol. I think this Bowie is calling me. I don't use a knife for flint striking.

Oops, I almost forgot what steel it was. Yeah, there is always better steel but it comes at a price.

Great review, nice knife!

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

It was fun

[@geraldmaxie8677]

Do you have this knife in you store?

[@SurvivalOnPurpose]

The store is going away. It is just an Amazon app but it is too confusing and hard to keep updated. You can get the knife here (or anything else too) and support the channel: survivalonpurpose.com/Uncle-Henry-184STUH

Sweet looking knife! A bit big for my taste but it is sweet.

I bet Chuck Norris can turn wine into water. Great review, think I need that knife. Thanks Bryan for the videos.
