Bowie Redo
« on: December 22, 2010, 10:38:00 PM »
This is a Redo that one of our members posted. His name is Steve (Seabass) up in Ohio. He got this knife when he was a young boy from his dad, He then gave it to his grandfather BO, which was a knife collector. Steve Lost his grandfather at the age of 88. He wanted to have this knife redone in memory of him, The first picture is not the knife that he sent me,(I forgot to take a pictre), but it looks about the same, He wanted to put a new handle on it and clean it up, and sharpen it ( it had never been sharpened), He picked out Cal. buckeye, I put a mosaic pin in the handle, I had to reshape the handle because the handle was bigger then the wood i had ordered. I thought I would make him a new sheath to go with it. I hope he likes it.
