Wow, that is a sweet recurve Bowie!
If anyone likes this knife, don't hesitate. I have a recurve fighter and an Instigator 2 folder by David, and he does excellent, solid work that looks great and holds up to hard use.
Someone's gonna have a great knife!

More than I want to spend on a "camping" knife, but I _love_ your work.

You're going to tempt me into buying one of these yet!

Don't fight the urge, Mike. It will only hurt you in the long run.

It looks PERFECT for camping. I have an Entrek Companion, but I'm just not a fan of the 1/4" bead-blast 440C. I've been eyeing this one as well:

You're really tempting me!

Is the sheath convertable to left-hand?

Oh for cryin' out loud! $200 for that awesome camp/bowie knife? C'mon people! This is a steal! David is the most under rated (and paid) knifemakers around these parts. Snatch this thing up before I get mad.

Michael_Aos · Jul 21, 2004

I e-mailed David a couple times this morning.

I'm torn between this and a Dozier Pro-Guides knife. I LOVE the grind, but I'm afraid it might be a little large. Also not sure if the sheath is left-hand-friendly.

Also hard to get super excited about 440C. Especially versus D2. If this were in S30V I'd have bought it already.

And finally, my wife says it looks "too pointy".

I like it though. Just don't "need" another camping knife. Unless of course this is the ULTIMATE camping knife... if so, then I can quit looking...

I just can't stand it anymore.

I'll take it.

SOLD!

Woohoo!! This was torturing me

DMKNIVES · Jul 21, 2004

Sold. Thanks Mike. I will get that clip changed over for left handed carry.

I was thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis close to getting it myself Michael! You'll have to let us know what you think of it when you get it.
