It is not listed anywhere in the description.** A: It should come with a leather and wood sheath that has a Sam Brown stud on the removable frog. It's basically an old-school, retro-style sheath. **Q: Why do I see this listed some places as "1055" and others "1085"?** A: It is 1085 now per Cold Steel. Earlier version was apparently 1055. **Q: How do you remove the blueing?** A: I personally like the blueing to protect the steel, but if you are set on removing it, naval jelly or vinegar may do what you want. https://m1-garand-rifle.com/debluing/ **Q: So does it come sharp, or not really? From reading it seems to be a crap shoot, but looking for a good bowie** A: It came with a serviceable secondary bevel, meaning... not really sharp, but with some minor sharpening skills you can touch up the edge and get it really sharp. I would not say that it comes "sharp" to my standards. ## Frequently Bought Together - Cold Steel 88CSAB 1917 Frontier Bowie - Cold Steel 1849 Rifleman’s Knife, Brown/Silver, 12" - Ameristep Wild West Bowie 10.75" 1090 High-Carbon Steel Clip Point Blade 5.25" Rosewood Handle Fixed Blade Knife w/Leather Sheath --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.kg/products/9112293-1917-frontier-bowie-fixed-blade-knife-12-25-clip-point](https://www.desertcart.kg/products/9112293-1917-frontier-bowie-fixed-blade-knife-12-25-clip-point) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kyrgyzstan* *Store origin: KG* *Last updated: 2026-07-06*
