Here's my latest.

A Wheeler inspired Bowie in satin finished 5160, and Ringed Gidgee. 15"OAL, blade is 10" long, and 1/4" thick a the ricasso. Guard and pin are 416 stainless. The spine and choil have both been 'faceted'.

Let me know what you think.

Thanks for looking.
 
That is clean work. A lot of attention to detail and nice photos too. I really like your work.
 
Very nice Will! If it didn't have your makers mark on it I'd think it was made by Nick Wheeler... and that's a strong compliment from me considering how highly I think of Nick's blades!! :)
 
Nice work, Will! The handle looks nice.The drop of the handle looks correct in relation to the tip. It should give an accurate thrust:thumbup:
 
Will, very nice knife and even nicer craftsmanship. Each one you make seems to get better!
 
Great homage to Nick and a great knife. Really like the facet choil. The only thing I'd have liked more was a steeper clip, but that could be just the angle of the photos. :)
