SEEMS I AM ON A BOWIE KICK
« on: January 11, 2009, 02:23:00 PM »
Seems I am on a kick for making Bowies as of late. Here is one I just finished today. And I have another I am heading out to finsh after I post this. This one has a 7" blade and a oal of 12.25" and ia 1.75" wide. Handle is Mexican Bocote and a burl spacers and Moose antler upfront. 5 3/16" brass pins. Thanks<><

I'm diggin' that imitation Ivory!
That knife is SWEET!
When the last deer disappears into the morning mist,
When the last elk vanishes from the hills,
When the last buffalo falls on the plains,
I will hunt mice for I am a hunter and I must have my freedom.
