My last Bowie of the year. Made for a co worker, Unfortunately it will probably ever be used as a working blade, it's ready if it does go to work. Edge hardened and drawn back with Oxy/ace torch. 10 1/4" blade of 5160, 15 1/2" OAL stained curly maple with silver wire inlay. Tung oil finished, mild steel fluted guard, billet alum. spacer and tooled veg. tanned leather sheath with frog.
Merry Christmas!
