In the earlier days of my knifemaking development roughly 2010-2014 when Bladeforums was IT and there was no better place, I was enamored with Don Hanson and his hamon bowies with walrus. It took me a long time to where I felt confident making one. I've had this piece of walrus at least 5 years, maybe 6. The steel in this one is some of Don's W2 2" round bar that I bought on the secondary market through the BF classifieds. Fittings are browned mild with stainless spacers.
