Just completed this one tonight and thought I would share it.

This is my attempt at a guardless bowie, and I think it turned out pretty well.

The steel is L6 with a faux hamon, and a sculpted bocote handle. The blade is flat ground with a rounded and polished spine with an unsharpened clip point.

Thanks for looking,

Brandon

Thanks rkmoore,

I used mustard on the blade as well as a series of soaks in come concentrated coffee.

Thanks fellas.

Abcdef- Im also not 100% on it. Gave it a try to see if I liked it kind of thing, ya know? A few passes with some 600 grit paper and it can be removed. Then again it just might grow on me.

Thanks again for all the kind words.
