I have a nice vest pocket or gambler's bowie up for sale. This knife is very light and quick in the hand, slim and trim. Sculpted and contoured handle feels great and provides secure grip with the texture. And of course, razor sharp where it counts and not sharp anywhere else.

Specs:
Hand forged from 1084
10 3/4" overall, 6" blade, .200" thick at the ricasso
Full distal taper, ending in a nice point
False edge, not sharp
Rounded spine and ricasso edge
Black g-10 fittings
Stabilized Amboyna burl handle, sculpted, carved and textured

Pris is $750 and does include a black tooled leather button stud sheath and shipping to the US. International buyers must pay actual shipping. I'll take paypal, check or money order (funds must clear prior to shipping).











Just a fun pic with some cool cards and some interesting, turn of the 20th century coins:
 
There are a very few knives I see that actually take my breath away at first sight. If it is in my budget, they then take a second thing from me.

This is a "breath taker!!!!!"
 
Thank you guys. I appreciate the kind words.

Just beautiful! what kind of detail is that on the handle? I'm talking about the bumpy areas.

It's texture that I added by stippling the outlined areas with a high speed tiny rotary burr. It adds just a bit of grip, some nice visual appeal but is in no way abrasive or painful on the hand.

Thanks for the comments again guys.
