Amber Stag Bowie
« on: January 22, 2010, 08:33:00 AM »
This a medium sized Bowie that I finished lately. The blade I forged from 5160 bar stock and is 7 1/2 inches. The handle is a nice Stag taper that I had dyed by Culpepper Co. The rest is stainless steel. The photo is two views of the same knife. Photo by Chuck Ward. Thanks, Lin

Super knife there Lin.  I didn't think your stuff could get any better, but somehow, it does.

It's a lucky customer that will end up with that beauty, Lin.
