Finished the Huebner Bowie

[Forrest Taylor]

As I mentioned in a previous thread when a friend found out I was making knives she asked me to make one for her husband.
They live in Texas so it had to be a Bowie knife.
She plans on giving it to him for Christmas. He has no idea.

16" overall length
Blade - 10.5" of CPM 3V
Guard And Spacers - 416 stainless and micarta
Handle - India stag

Very nice!

Outstanding, congrats.
The star pin is a nice touch.

 

[Forrest Taylor]

Thank you.
I appreciate the encouragement.
This is the seventh knife I've made so I'm still learning

 

[Forrest Taylor]

I take only partial credit for the design. I freely and shamelessly admit to copying the Randall 27 handle. In my opinion it is one of the most beautiful I've ever seen.

That is a gorgeous Bowie knife - nice work!

That is a very nice clean Bowie well worthy of a display stand rather than hiddened in a sheath.

[Forrest Taylor]

Oh yeah.
I asked his wife to get video of him opening the box.
