Oh WOW!! Very beautiful knife and sheath...superb detailing, not over-stated!!
Welcome to this fine forum!
 
Elegant work Peter. I especially like the frame tang treatment. The liners really make it pop, and it works with the grain of the mammoth too. Great leather work.
 
Beautiful design and beautifully executed. Just about the perfect "Gent's Bowie"
The blade shape reminds me of a "Mexican" or "El Paso Bowie" a friend had many years ago. I had been bought out there someplace right after WWI.
