Bill Bagwell inspired fighter

[Tony Mont]

Good evening everyone, long time no see!

I have not been that active in the forums lately, hopefully everyone is doing great!

This blade was my last of 2025, a Bill Bagwell inspired fighter with an antiqued overall finish and stag handle. The blade was forged from 1070 steel and the fittings are brass.
I really enjoyed this build and I still cannot believe how nicely this piece of stag fit the knife.

Did this go to a man in Germany? John

Looks identical to what a guy on my hunting forum received. Beautiful.

Btw I think you did a stellar job. I offered to make him one but he snubbed his nose at me.

Thank you for the kind words!
The knife is indeed headed to Germany.

Tony, If going to "Marc" I am the one who recommended you to him. You did a great job with that knife! John
