An influx of incoming bladware has made the sale of a few pieces a prudent, if otherwise regrettable choice.
Next up is a terrific damscus bowie by top Journeyman Smith and current World Cutting Champ, Lin Rhea.

The specs are as follows:
- 8" ladder damascus blade of 1080 and 15N20 OAL a shade over 13"
- Complex molti-oiece guard of stainless steel and silicon bronze - please note the silocon bronze plugs in the underside of the guard - very clean and not easy to do.
- Premium Riged Gidgee handle - a dense, tough and naturally stable wood.
- Rowe sheath (not pictured).
Lin's success in the highly competitive cutting competitions shows in the ergonomic handle design. Pick it up and you know that a secure, comfortable grip is yours for as long as you need it. His experience would also show in the way this knife cuts, but this particular piece has never been carried, used or sharpened and is thus offered in mint condition.
It is yours for US$795 inclusive of insured shipping.
The first "Ill take it" sent via e-mail to: rogerpinnock@cogeco.ca gets it.
Thanks for your time.
