My latest Bowie. The blade is W2 with hamon, 9 1/2" long and 1/4" thick. The guard is made from one of a few pieces of wrought iron that I found years ago in outback South Australia; possibly fragments of some very old prospecting equipment. Ringed Gidgee handle, and stainless spacer and pin.

Thanks for looking.
 
now you're talkin.
 
Beautiful work Will. I'm getting a little tired of repeating myself. ;)
 
Sweet Will, Haven't seen that guard from you before, very nice. Prefer your sculpted handles though. Great piece. :thumbup:
 
Beautiful Bowie Will!
Just what I have come to expect from you.
Clean and Conservative with just enough extras (great wood, cool guard) to make it special.
Whenever I see your name I always have to take a look.
 
Thanks for the comments guys!

Thanks Dave. The guard shape was a first for me, as was the wrought iron.

Thanks Mark. Speaking of great wood; I need some more! If only there was some kind of source.. a source for burl..
