Here's my latest work. I got really inspired to make a big bowie after seeing all the ones at the Pasadena Knife Expo last weekend. I also used this piece of jet black ebony that I bought at the show. The blade is 9.5" of 5160 and overall length is 15". Fittings are mild steel. Thanks for looking.

That is probably my fav design of yours so far, the whole thing. I really like it:thumbup:
 
Thanks everyone for the comments. I haven't used ebony in a long time and had forgotten how bad the dust was. It turns out nicely in the end though. I feel this is my best work so far. Everything just came out right. I also put a nice taper to the blade. I'm going to make a sheath this weekend and then sell this thing. As much as I'd like to keep it I have to try to sell it!
