Inspired by 300

[Bill Siegle]

Went to see the movie 300 at the earliest I could on friday. Well after watching that I had waaaaaaaaay too much testosterone in my system and it flowed while I was in my shop Here's the end result! 21 1/4 overall with a 14 3/4 blade. Scales are jade green G10. If any Persian army comes asking questions I got the answer!!!!!

Nice work! I bet this one's got quite a bit of heft to it.

 

[pageophile]

Wow Bill, that's quite the MONSTER ! ! !

Nicely done

 

[grease-man]

I haven't seen the movie yet, but if it inspired you to make this big nasty...I may have to go very soon! Great Knife! -Matt-

 

[Tanguay Custom Knives]

Holy friggin crap!

 

[dialton]

I guess I need to go to the movies!!!! Nice blade. I bet that was a bear to grind.

 

[Keith Montgomery]

That is one cool knife. I love the blade shape.

 

[BladeQueen]

That blade looks awesome! I wish i had that to go into my display case! Nice work!!!

 

[Tiewas]

Really knice knife. Just one suggestion.

Needs a guard.

 

[TexasNativeDRJH]

Excellent work there, and I know what you mean about the testosterone flow! That movie had me pumped, and I can't remember any other movie I've seen get a standing ovation at the credits. I may see it again.

 

[Trout Tamer]

Sweetness. I can see the movie's visual influence in the blade shape and grind. But, don't hold out on us - which steel did you use? What's the spine thickness? Give us specs!

 

[Spider Ringo]

Oooh Yeah!

Very nice work. Me wants one. Molon Labe! Best movie in years.

 

[moosemaster]

I think i am gonna give it a go as well. The 300 short sword looks to mean! I have got to make one

 

[untamed]

Leonidas would've been proud. . . and drooling!!!

 

[Guyon]

I like that blade shape. :thumbup:

 

[T.K.C.]

THAT is one heckuva knife!! WOW!! What are you calling that big, bad, beast of a knife!! I like it a lot, by the way.

 

[bigbcustom]

I gotta say....that is one sweet looking blade. Probably one hell of a chopper as well with all that weight forward. The 300 had me pumped for an hour or two afterward as well.

 

[OldPhysics]

Good Heavens, Mr. Siegle!!

I'll certainly abandon any purely theoretical aspirations I may once have had to 'invade' your forge in search of metallic 'booty.'

That is one scary-looking de-animator.

Now all you need is a huge well.

Nice work man, absolutely amazing.
