Just finished this Bowie for the Northwest Offshore Sportsman Show.Its a donated knife to help raise funds for O.C.E.A.N. Do you think it will meet their approval?Hope so!!The handle is Madrone burl with Mammoth Ivory inlay,copper guard,copper pommel and copper spacers.Blade is ats-34 and 12" in length.
 
Awesome knife. Very impressive handle. I don't see a lot of makers using madrone burl. Great shape and finish on the handle. The ivory inlay gave it a really classy look.
 
Thanks a bunch for the compliments everyone.I tried to shape the blade so it looked like a blade in a blade by sanding the edges above my hollow grind up to the false edge.I also think I got my plunge cut just a little to deep but its to late now.It is what it is!!
 
Outstanding blade Ray!!! BTW, I received the Morel Mushroom knife. You are an artist; with an eye for detail and a deft touch. I couldn't be happier!!! It was a pleasure.
