Here's the latest bowie out of my shop. Its a guardless camp bowie.

Forged from 1075 with active hamon
14 1/2" overall, 9 1/2" blade
Black g-10 fluted collars
File-worked bronze accents
Stabilized afzelia xylay handle

Well, I sure like it. No guard and the hamon really set off the sleek overall profile.
 
Your fit, finish, and and attention to detail is always spot-on....another great build. I think I have a miniature of that. ;) :D

Thank you my friend! Yeah....that's right....you do have a small version. :cool:
 
Just splendid John - looks like someone needs to start a "Best Camp Knife" competition for you to win bud. :)
 
Incredible. I will certainly attempt some half-assed version of the file-worked spacers.
 
Just one damned fantastic piece after another from you, John. Getting a little boring if you ask me. How 'bout throwin' us mortals a bone once in a while? Maybe an oops here, a flaw there, crappy choice of materials....something?

Another fine looking Bowie John, your attention to detail never disapoints.
