Bill Burke Boot Blade

[mckgreg]

Here is a jewel with Musk Ox and forged, triple quenched 52100. The hamon line extends about 1 1/2" on the top false edge. Blade is 4 1/4" and the knife is 9" overall. Slim and sleek.

This may be a better shot. We decided to leave a butt cap off this piece to see how it would look. What do you guys think?

mckgreg,

Very elegant boot dagger. It looks good without the buttcap and that musk horn has a nice look to it. Bill's making some beautiful knives. He might have to wait a few more years before he qualifies to test for MS but IMO he could probably pass it now. Take a look at this stout looking bowie I found surfing the web.

Bill makes some great knives. I really like that little boot knife. That Bowie is outstanding.

Ahhh ..reminiscent of the first "Samson Knives" boot models with Charlie Maas sheaths. Love the profiling...very nice job.
