I have a weakness for the old Bowies. This one is gorgeous. The sheath is equally nice.

Robert, that is a great piece of work! I love it all! The sheath is outstanding too! Lots of work went into that package! The Spanish Notch is interesting.

I have noticed I always am behind my new friend Dudley in commenting!

Thanks Steve, you're very generous. I hope I have many more to come.

This knife would look so cool in a western, I picture it in a bar scene at a poker table, cause it's definitely a little too upscale for a cowboy, but a gambler,hmmm....
