Forged Frame Handle Bowie wth Mesquite Burl

[Travis Fry]

I've been making knives for 7 years or so now, and have never made a Bowie until now. I’ve always wanted to do a frame handle, and my first Bowie seemed like a good time to do it. The blade was hand forged by me a few years back, and I’ve been waiting for the right idea to finish it up. The guard, frame, and spacers are black G10 with nickel silver accents and pins, and the handle is some of the best stabilized mesquite burl I've ever seen, which happens to have come from my grandmother’s place in Christoval, Texas. Asking $650 as pictured (no sheath, but I'll throw in the cigar if you want) plus insured shipping via UPS.

OAL: 10 7/8 inches

Blade: 6 inches

Steel: Forged 1080

that is great Travis , the g-10 framed handle really adds a lot to the whole package and I agree with you on the Mesquite it is outstanding .
