Spyderco Stok Bowie FB49GPOD 2.95″ Olive Drab G-10 Fixed Blade Knife

The Spyderco Stok Bowie FB49GPOD combines compact fixed-blade simplicity with distinctive Bowie-inspired styling and rugged everyday materials.

Designed by Dutch custom knifemaker Sjoerd Stok, this compact fixed blade features a 2.95-inch stonewashed 8Cr13MoV stainless steel blade, textured olive drab G-10 handle scales and a versatile sheath system.

Its sub-3-inch blade provides useful cutting capability while keeping the overall package compact enough for everyday, outdoor and utility applications.

2.95-Inch Bowie Blade

The defining feature of this Stok configuration is its 2.95-inch Bowie-style blade.

The Bowie-inspired profile combines a useful cutting edge with a distinctive upswept point, giving the compact knife plenty of character without requiring the dimensions of a traditional full-size Bowie knife.

At just under three inches, the blade provides an appealing balance between cutting capability and portability.

The Stok Bowie is well suited for:

• Everyday utility
• Camping
• Hiking
• Outdoor activities
• Cutting cord and rope
• Package opening
• General-purpose cutting
• Fixed-blade collections
• 8Cr13MoV Stainless Steel

The Stok Bowie uses 8Cr13MoV stainless steel, a practical blade steel commonly found in value-oriented working knives.

It provides a useful combination of:

• Good corrosion resistance
• Everyday cutting performance
• Reasonable toughness
• Straightforward sharpening
• Approachable overall value

For a compact knife intended to actually see regular use, 8Cr13MoV provides dependable performance without requiring complicated maintenance.

Stonewashed Blade Finish

The blade features a stonewashed finish, giving the Stok Bowie a subdued, rugged appearance.

Stonewashing also helps disguise the small scratches and marks that naturally develop as a working knife gets used.

That makes the finish particularly appropriate for an everyday or outdoor fixed blade where function matters more than keeping the blade looking pristine.

Plain-Edge Cutting Surface

This Stok Bowie features a plain cutting edge, providing a continuous cutting surface for clean and controlled cuts.

The plain edge is versatile enough for a wide variety of everyday materials and is straightforward to sharpen when maintenance becomes necessary.

Combined with the Bowie-style blade geometry, it creates a compact fixed blade capable of handling a broad range of general utility tasks.

Olive Drab G-10 Handle

The olive drab textured G-10 handle gives the Stok Bowie a rugged outdoor-oriented appearance while providing excellent practical durability.

G-10 is a fiberglass-based laminate known for its strength, dimensional stability and resistance to moisture.

The textured surface provides positive traction in the hand, while the OD green color complements the knife’s stonewashed blade and utilitarian design.

Full-Tang Fixed-Blade Construction

The Stok Bowie uses full-tang construction, meaning the blade steel extends through the handle rather than terminating near the front of the grip.

This straightforward design eliminates the pivots, springs and locking mechanisms associated with folding knives.

For users who appreciate the simplicity of a fixed blade, the Stok provides that durability in a considerably more compact package than a traditional outdoor knife.

Compact Fixed-Blade Design

One of the biggest advantages of the Spyderco Stok Bowie is its size.

Many fixed-blade knives are simply too large to comfortably incorporate into an everyday gear setup.

The Stok takes a different approach.

Its 2.95-inch blade provides useful cutting capability while keeping the overall package compact enough for users who want fixed-blade simplicity without carrying a large survival or camp knife.

Included Sheath and G-Clip™

The Spyderco Stok Bowie includes a molded sheath and G-Clip™ attachment, providing convenient carry and storage options.

The sheath protects the blade when the knife isn’t being used and allows the Stok to be incorporated into compatible belt or gear setups.

The G-Clip system adds versatility to how the sheath can be positioned, making the knife adaptable to different carry preferences.

Designed by Sjoerd Stok

The Stok series is a collaboration between Spyderco and Dutch custom knifemaker Sjoerd Stok.

His compact fixed-blade concept combines straightforward utility with distinctive proportions and blade geometry.

The result feels different from simply shrinking down a traditional hunting knife—the Stok was designed from the beginning around compact fixed-blade use.

Compact Size, Serious Utility

The Spyderco Stok Bowie FB49GPOD delivers fixed-blade simplicity in a compact and highly portable format.

Its combination of a 2.95-inch stonewashed 8Cr13MoV Bowie blade, olive drab textured G-10 handle, full-tang construction and included sheath with G-Clip creates a versatile knife for everyday utility, outdoor adventures and general cutting tasks.

For buyers searching for a Spyderco Stok Bowie OD Green fixed blade, the FB49GPOD offers distinctive styling, practical materials and genuine Spyderco design in a compact package.
