9" bowie

[Phillip Patton]

Steel: 1080, with a very interesting natural hamon

Hardness: 58-59

Blade length: 9"

Total length: 14-3/4"

Blade thickness: 1/4"

Handle material: Desert Ironwood

Fittings: Damascus

Price: Normally, I wouldn't sell a knife like this for less than $400 or so, but this one has some minor cosmetic imperfections. So I'm lowering the price to $300 + $11 shipping. If you get the knife, and don't think the imperfections are that bad, you can pay the additional $100 On the other hand, if you think it's terrible, you can return it and get your money back.

I can take paypal, check, or MO.

Comes with leather sheath, which is not made yet, so it can be customized for you.

Thanks for looking!

I have too many things on order right now (including one from Phillip) so I'm passing this deal up-----for now. I'm in meetings until early afternoon, and if this is still here when I get back I'm taking it, so if you're out there considering it, don't waffle too long....

Saved! (My bank account, that is). Not that I really thought it'd still be here.

GREAT snag Tetsusaiga---Phillip's idea of proper edge geometry is right on in my opinion, and fit/finish is among the best there is.
