This has been quite an enjoyable thread. I always love seeing others work and there are certainly some beauties here. Just to add my $.02, here's a few that I've done over the last few months:

These are a few I've the pleasure of owning:

Tad lynch forged fighter "irish traveler"
W2 with forged finish, wrought iron guard and a stunning piece of ironwood for the handle:

And its brother "Ard Rí" fighter. Damascus blade with wrought iron fittings and an absolutely off the chart piece of Turkish walnut:

Matt Lamey Bowie great contouring and a good size, not too big, not too wide but plenty of everything for the job:

Another Matt Lamey micarta handle and bead blasted blade. Cracking hamon on this. I love the belly almost tactical southwest bowie:

Tad Lynch wrought iron s guard bowie with maple handle. Such a sleek and fast bowie. This has everything for an edc Bowie. Really thin profile and the handle contouring lets you grasp the bottom end of the handle and anchor it to make the most of the length:

This is the complete opposite. It's just a massive Bowie. Nearly twelve inch blade. It has mass that would make some impact:

Bagwell Stag and damascus Hell's Belle
Have to give credit to Joe for this as his HB gave me the bug for fighting Bowies:

Sadly I didn't take a lot of pics of this one. I got this one off Tad for a good friend of mine now serving in the royal marine commandos. 5160, micarta handle with carbon fibre pins. Hopefully it will serve him well:

I'm probably jumping the gun on this one since it hasn't been HT'd yet but it is a pure fighter... single purpose tool.

 
It's a little guy, so maybe instead of fighter we'll say "mildly disagreeable"?


:D
 
My latest fighter:

Great thread. So much eye candy here. If you are a knife maker this place will surly inspire you. It has me. Here is one I made a while ago. 9 inch blade.

 
"Jim that Moran is just fantastic what a knife you are a fortunate man"

+10 What a fabulous knife for any collection!
 
Here's one I finished for a buddy of mine. It has a nice Hamon, but I didn't get a pic of it. 11.5" 1075 blade, Rc 59, 1075 guard, Landscape zircote handle, Copper Spacer. Sorry for the crappy cell pics.

Here's what I consider to be one of my best fighters.:) And a pretty nice Damascus bowie too. Unfortunately, it appears you can't click on them and enlarge, darn!
