Seems like when a person does some progression photos, the outcome can seem a bit anti-climactic.
I guess that's the way things go.
Here is the Bowie that thrilled my customer immensely.
And he did have a great deal to do with its design and treatment.
The Walnut is SUPER!!! dark, but the character is outlandish. Really awesome.
Headed to Arkansas.



And it's a bit difficult to see - but this is the actual piece of Walnut that is on the knife:
I needed to send a quick photo to the customer and just thought I'd toss it up here this morning so you'd have some stuff to look at while drinking your coffee.
San Mai Bowie blade with sharpened clip, which will get a hot-blued frame.
Guard and spacer - which still need a lot of manipulation and stock removal - are wrought iron, and will get deeply etched and hot-blued as well.
Not even sure of the handle material as of now.
Full take-down. Rock solid.
Enjoy your coffee.
