Nice scores. That's a great Bowie, I love the white ostrich inlay on the sheath, too.

Trace was asking $65 for them. He may even have a few left.

It shuts down at 4:00 today. Getting to shows in the last couple of hours can sometimes be very frustrating. I don't know how Blade West handles things, but at many shows a large percentage of the makers will already be packed up and gone.

19.5" OAL with a 13" blade. It is distally tapered and starts out at over 1/4" at the ricasso.
