Camp Bowie

[David Stifle]

You may have seen this bowie, based somewhat on the Hudson Bay Camp Knife, in the Custom and Handmade forum, where it got some nice comments. But I don't feel done unless I post my work here, because, I guess, I have always posted my work here. This bowie has a 80CRv2 blade, 2" wide by 10.75" long, acid etched. The handle is 6" long, micarta and leather stack with a crown pommel. It handles well, and cuts like a beast.

Amazing design. Incredible handle, and beautiful profile david. Long necked camp chopper meets bowie. Simply amazing. This is a great piece.

That's really cool David! I like that finish on the blade and your handle construction.

Chief,
Again, nice job, what a beautiful monster! Great use of different textures to add to the eye appeal!

Thanks, folks, appreciate the nice sentiments. I am, however, thinking of taking the etch off, it is too much perhaps.

Hi everybody. sorry, but I'm finding information about this knife... Can you help me?

I don't know much about knife. this knife gave me my father about 20 years ago...
I want to know if this knife is original?
what is it's model? and if you say me more characteristics can be great. Thank you...

nice job david ! carnatera, that looks to be a factory made knife, probably from the 1960's-80's.
