Product Description
Gil Hibben and United Cutlery teamed up to produce a series of annual knives designed by Gil in the early '90s. The annual series, better known as the Fantasy Series, soon became a tradition that continues today. The 2011 Annual Series is the Gil Hibben Eclipse Bowie. It has an 11 3/8" AUS-6 stainless steel clip point blade and a pakkawood handle. The pommel and guard are striking in stainless steel and a leather sheath is included. This incredible Gil Hibben autographed knife is limited to 3,000 pieces. Don't be the one who misses out on it!
I got the knife and am very pleased with it however it was sent to me without a Sheath. I purchased it at full price and expected to get the complete piece. Kind of disappointing to tell the truth.
Response: We do sincerely apologize for this inconvenience as this is not how we ship our products. We are shipping you a sheath for this item. Once again we do apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Now THAT's a knife!
I just received my knife. I have quite a few Gil Hibben knives, I love them all. This new part of my collection probably came to quickly, this is the finest of them all!
The heft of this knife is awesome, I probably need to work out just to be able to handle it properly.
BUDK supplies ALL of my Hibben knives.
What a great compliment this is to my collection, it will be hard to beat!
My Recon Bowie is my next favorite. I was in Recon with the Marines in Nam. If we'd had these knives back then, we would have won the war.
Thank you BUDK!

Fantastic Knife
When I first subscribed to Budk magazine this was the main knife that I wanted. Now that I've finally gotten my hands on it, I am reminded of why I made that decision. This knife is completely amazing. I'm assuming it has about a weight of 3 1/2 lbs and I'm assuming it'd really pack a punch. I mainly wanted this knife for two reasons, 1, I wanted a great knife to take hunting with me if I do get the chance to take an animal with just a knife (My dream) and 2, to show up my dad who's been bragging about his Gil Hibben knife that he recently purchased. I can safely say that I have accomplished both goals with this weapon. The only complaint that I have is that the first time I had this blade ordered, it got here with a slightly bent blade tip due to rough handling in the postage system as well as not having a plastic blade protecting tip. This was remedied when I shipped it back for a new one, and I am overjoyed with the end result. Also, the sheath comes a bit stiff and tight and worried me about the button scratching the blade, I solved this by placing a long screwdriver into it and leaving it overnight. By morning, I had a fully stretched sheath with more than enough room for the knife. Someone else had mentioned the handle being slightly too large and I'd have to disagree with them respectfully. I feel as though the handle is the perfect size, and would look and feel disproportionate to the massive blade if it were any smaller. This has become my absolute favorite knife.

Crocodile Dundee
As Crocodile Dundee said, "That's not a knife, This is a Knife!" And it is. I've waited two years to buy this to add to my substantial collection of knives. This is now clearly and easily number One. Wow, razor sharp out of the box, heavy, balanced, huge and pure eye candy. I took pics of it on my phone and sent it to everyone, knowing ahead of time that a lot of my friends wouldn't be too impressed because they're not 'into" knives, but I had to share anyway. Can't wait to buy more Hibbens but they'll be hard pressed to top this one.

This is a Knife-and-a -half
I own several Hibben knives and swords and was totally blown away by this latest addition to my collection. This is one massive knife in all respects...weight, blade length, grip, pommel, hilt, you name it! I thought my Rambo III was massive, but this makes that knife feel like a toy in my hands! If you're a Gil Hibben collector you have to add this beauty to your arsenal, you will not be disappointed!

Gil Hibben Does It Again!!
I own several Gil Hibben knives & he surpassed my expectations again. Of my Hibben collection I consider this one of the top three I own so far!! I was really surprised how heavy the knife is & how thick and massive the guard is. Gil always seem to come up with a fresh and new design that never disappoints.

blown away
My New Favorite Knife! The Pictures Don't Do It Justice!. This Is One Massive Well Constructed, Substantial Bowie ThatMakesAll Other Knives Cry In Their Sleep. My Only Criticism, Though I Think I Actually Like It Is That The Handle Is So Thick It Makes MY Hand Feel Too Small To Even Hold It. And I'm Not A Small Guy. But That Just Makes ThIs Knife Feel Even More Legendary. Went Way Abov Expectations, And Fits Snugly In It's Sheath. If I Could I Would Wear It Every Where. For Now I Will Content Myself With Walking Around The House With It.
