Bowie knife 2025

The dark stag is really nice, especially with the antiqued guard and pommel cap, and the lengthwise brushed satin is beautiful. I also have to say your maker's mark is very nice. There are a lot of really fantastic smiths working out of South America these days making traditionally styled knives, and this is a weird thing to say, but for knives like this you need a script maker's mark, and some of them are using sans-serif fonts like Arial for their maker's mark or name that are a little aesthetically jarring on what is otherwise a very lovely Turkish-twist bowie with traditional wood or bone handle. Your maker's mark is excellent for your style.

Thank you, I like making knives in the most classic style. I liked your observation about the brand's font, it's something that I think should be the bladesmith's purpose and working style.
