A slightly different type of mid-sized bowie for me, one that I am really happy with and plan on making more of:thumbup: She's slightly blade heavy, and I made the contours of the handle a bit more subtle than normal to allow for a larger variety of comfortable grip postitions. This is the knife I'd want if I was stuck in one of those "one knife, lost in the desert" scenarios
Overall length: just over 12"
Blade Length: 7 3/8" tip-to-scales, 6 7/8" tip-to-plunge line
Steel: 3/16" thick 1075
Handles: Olive Green canvas Micarta over black liners, SS pins and thong hole
Grind: Full height convex to a medium-thin edge, with a convex secondary bevel
Finish: Imperfect (but getting better
) 400 grit hand-satin
Sheath: Right hand pouch type, see pics in post below!




Asking $145(150) for this one, all fees and shipping in the US included. I take Paypal or USPS MOs. If you'd like it without a sheath, I'm more than willing to make a deal
Thanks,
Walter
