A folding bowie I finished

[William Rogers]

This is my last project. I made it for a guy in the UK based on some pictures he showed me. It's a huge folding knife - extending to 12 inches. The idea was to create a pretty Bowie style knife that folded and could slide into a belt sheath.

Damascus was hand forged from 52100 - ball bearing steel, 5160, 203E and 15N20.

The scales are in antique ivory and mother of pearl.
