Bowie in 300 plus Year Old Chestnut

Hi Everyone,

Up for sale is a Bowie I recently finished. Specs are as follows:

7 3/4" edge quenched blade of 1075, hand rubbed to 1500 grit and finished with 600 grit pull strokes.

Handle is 300 plus year old chestnut recovered from my buddies farm house. It has been stored in his barn for the last 60 or so years. It has absolutely gorgeous grain throughout....but the butt end is just insane....sanded to 2500 grit, the cooper like "rays" just jump out at you.

The guard is hand carved 4 piece nickel silver as well as a singe hammer peened pin.

O.A.L. is right at 13"

As always the blade comes with a hand stitched leather sheath by my father-in-law Paul Wittle.

$600.00 $500.00 $450.00 plus $15.00 insured shipping anywhere in the lower 48

Thanks for looking,


Bobby,

Bobby, I'll take the stag handle.

Yay!, you just saved me from myself! Great piece!

 

[bobbywett]

Oh drducati,

She is yours. I will send PM with my Paypal account number.

That is a beautiful piece. Tell your father-in-law that the sheath is a perfect match for the knife. If drducati has a change of heart, I will be more than happy to take it off your hands.

 

[drducati]

I occasionally have a change of heart but usually about buying more not less.
Nasty habit ,knives.

lacticacid,

I am very fortunate to have such a talented father-in-law as my sheath maker. He more often then not enhances my work with his impeccable craftsmanship. I will be sure to tell him of your comments.

Thanks,

Bobby
