Wanted to show off the work of J.R. Cook and Barry Lee Hands with photography by Jim Cooper who have all generously donated their efforts to creating Freedom's Steel™ VI - Victory's Edge™ Bowie - Celebrating the Second Amendment's Preservation:

These craftsmen have generously donated their efforts to Knife Rights and Knife Rights in turn has donated this incredible Bowie to National Rifle Association's Institute for Legislative Action (NRA-ILA) in celebration of the Second Amendment's Preservation in this past year's elections. Knife Rights is the Second Front in Defense of the Second Amendment™.

Freedom's Steel™ VI - Victory's Edge™ Bowie will be a featured auction item at the NRA-ILA Dinner and Auction during the NRA Annual Meeting in Atlanta, Georgia, this April. This is the sixth year in a row that Knife Rights has donated a Freedom's Steel™ knife, raising over $120,000 the first five years.

Freedom's Steel™ VI - Victory's Edge™ Bowie will be on display at J.R. Cook's table at the Art of Steel show in Little Rock, AR, on Feb. 18 & 19.

"Last year's election represented the greatest threat to the Second Amendment in the history of this great nation. Credit is due to NRA-ILA for ensuring the results on November 8th will serve to preserve the Second Amendment for generations to come. Knife Rights and the NRA have a common interest in protecting our civil rights and specifically the right to own and use tools appropriate for self-defense. Knife Rights is proud to assist NRA in protecting these rights," said Knife Rights Chairman and Founder Doug Ritter. "We are sincerely grateful for the support provided to us by NRA-ILA as we fight the Second Front in Defense of the Second Amendment."

Lots more details, information about attending the NRA-ILA Dinner and Auction, plus Coop's high resolution images including detail shots of the engraving at: www.KnifeRights.org/FreedomsSteel

The BIG efforts are from the others. The work that JR Cook and Barry Lee Hands did is stunning, and I am pleased to be mentioned, yet honest about my less intensive efforts. Not less intentioned, though.

Doug Ritter is ALSO the man who needs to take a bow for this monumental project. He won't say so, but I WILL! Huge props. :thumbup:

For my part, let me show you a better look at THEIR work:

I look forward to the auction!
 
I'd try telling you how much I love this knife but I don't have enough words for it. It's THAT stunning.
