Here is a beauty made by Dan Cannon of Dallas, Texas who retired about 12-15 years ago and did some beautiful work. His nickname is the "Winterhawk Rancher" and his grandson Chad Cannon still makes knives in Texas marking his blades "Chad".
This Bowie is 17" OAL with a 11.25" BL. Steel is 3/16" 154CM. "CANNON" is marked on the right side of the blade and it has extensive file work along the top of the blade and on the integral finger guard. Brass double pinned bolsters. The scales are stabilized flame Maple that are secured to the full tang with 3 brass pins and a brass thong hole. It comes with a MINT heavy leather sheath made by Dan for this knife, stitching is excellent.
I just don't use a blade this large and was looking for something I can carry concealed here in Arizona. Show me what you have in way of custom blades and maybe we can work out a trade. If you are looking to trade a Busse made of INFI steel or a Fiddleback Forge that would really get my attention, users are fine.
