hello again fellas
i just want to show you a knife that i made for a good friend of mine couple month's ago, he is a major in the greek army, and knife enthusiast,so he want a custom knife to carry.
so i forge this blade from a huge roller bearing 52100 steel as the title says, i allways follow mister fowler way for this steel, well here is some details
blade length at 19cm. 32cm.total brass guard trigger and pomel, the handle is from myrtille wood, maybe
not the most beautifull but veeery hard.

that's it i hope you like it and any comment's are wellcome
 
Looking cool.
Do not like this wood, but if it works, it is fine.
Top edge sharpened?
 
I know why i like it - the blade reminds me of original recon bowie. But I guess the blade is not blued, it is just polished steel?

you're right again the blade is mirror polished and the time the foto's taken was near dusk that's why those color's
