Hi my name is Tony and I am from Holland, I have a question about the beautiful bill bagwell bowie knives, especially the handle construction.
Are they attached only by epoxy??
And those beautiful pins on the handle how is that done?.. .. Maby someone know this. Thanks in advance
 
I haven't handled an original. I made this bird's head tribute last year. I got some 1 mm stainless pin and cut it into many pieces, drilled all the holes, set them in with epoxy and sanded flush. I can only guess that Bill's process was similar.
