A bowie with ironwood

[JeridJohnson]

Hello folks,

Summer is finally over and after taking much of it off from knife making I recently finished up this custom order which I conveniently got just after it cooled down. Hope you enjoy the knife.. The sheath comes next..

Specs:

* Forged 5160 carbon steel blade with acid etch
* 7.5" blade - 5" handle
* Stainless steel guard and nickel silver ferrule
* Ironwood handle (2 pieces)

Cheers,
Jerid

I peek at this knife almost daily. It really is masterful. Someday I'll be able to get my grinds that clean.... (yea, if I work at it for 10 years (((I plan to))))

Jarid;
Your work is exellent . I wish I had bought that integral you made from drill rod. That was a sweet knife. Considering you do other things to make a living I would say you are on a curve to meet many smiths in the field.
