Here is a bowie I just finished up. Construction is based on Bruce Evans tutorial. Of course, the end result is different.
12 3/4" Overall. 7 1/2" L6 3/16" thick.
False edge, vine file work on spine. Guard and ferrel are made
from one piece of 8620. Black palm, with white liners and SS pins.
Sheath is hand sewn and tooled 8-9Oz leather with Sam Brown stud.
let me know what you think.

Thanks, Keith. Normaly I don't do filework except for thumb grip, but,"what the customer wants"...
 
Nice knife! :)

I've never heard the term "Coke bottle" Bowie before. :confused:
If I had to guess, I'd say it referred to the handle shape?
