Title: Prototype O1 and Koa {All purpose bowie}
Post by: srtben on September 04, 2012, 10:27:00 PM

This a new Prototype I just finished up. I am calling it the A.P.B. or All Purpose Bowie.
This is a dressed up one with stabilized curly Koa, a tapered tang and O1 tool steel.
The Koa is hand finished to 2500grit and has super character and chatoyancy that is very hard to capture on camera.
I attached a video to try and capture the Koa a bit better.
Here are the specs

OAL - 9"
Blade - 4.75"
Steel - .250" O1 tool steel (Heat treat done in my digitally controlled Evenheat kiln)
Handle - Stabilized Curly Koa, hand rubbed finish to 2500 grit.
Features - Tapered tang, thumb grooves,carbon fiber pins and a copper tube.
Sheath - 11oz leather, hand tooled and stitched
Price - $375  SOLD PF
Free shipping in the Conus, please add $25 for shipping to Canada
I accept Paypal or postal money order
Thanks for looking!!
