1st Ring-Guard Bowie

[J. Neilson]

This was a customer request that I was really pleased with. This bowie has a 6 1/4" blade of hand-rubbed 5160 steel, multi-edge quenched (like normal). The knife has an 11 1/2" total length. The handle has a curled ring guard and pommel of 160 layer high carbon damascus steel (1084/15N20/L6) with a wolf's paw carved into the pommel cap. The handle itself is stabilized/dyed green and gold Maple Burl wood with stainless steel pins and black spacers. The tooled "top flap" blade sheath Tess did for this one has a wolf & raven carving in the leather. Kind of a Native American/Celtic cross-over. The knife balances perfectly right on the ring, as it should be.

What a great looking package J. and Tess, your customer has excellent taste. I really like that guard and pommel, and the sheath compliments it perfectly!!
