This bowie is made from O1 tool steel blade with a hand rubbed brushed finish. There is an unsharpened swedge and a fine tip. The 6.5" blade has a full flat grind. O1 tool steel is an excellent blade steel because of its strength and durability. It takes a very fine edge and holds it well. Overall length is 11.5"

The handle material is a stabilized mango wood. It has a shimmer that is impossible to ignore. The guard is made from nickel silver with a fine brushed finish. The pin is also nickel silver. The handle has a very comfortable grip with a flat section at the front for control and indexing.

It also has a hand made custom sheath. The sheath is all hand tooled, dyed, and sewn.
Price is $500 shipped in the USA

The handle is made from Ebony with a stainless steel guard sporting a matching brushed finish. The pins are made from nickel silver. The frame is made from O1 tool steel with a brushed finish to match the overall design.

The sheath design is called a Mexican pouch style. It is all hand tooled and stitched. The leather is dyed to match the knife and has a concho mounted to the front.

That concho looks to be a Oregon Trail commerative half dollar. Nice bit of silver as an adornment.
