Here’s a new medium sized Bowie up for your consideration.

Steel .195” 440C professional HT 59/60 and hand sanded to 1500 grit for a highly reflective finish.

Edge before sharpening was .015” or so and the blade glides through phone book paper, leather, rope etc. The swedge is slightly flared at the tip for a little extra strength up front.

Dimensions: 10 1/2” OAL, Tip to Scales 6” Width 1 3/4”

Sculpted Bobote scales sanded to 1200 grit with a faceted copper spacer/guard, multi-color fiber and a 1/16” copper pin. Finished with Danish oil and carnauba wax.

Lined and dyed sheath, wet molded for a snug fit. The lighter areas are mostly reflections.

Comments and questions appreciated.

Asking only $165 via paypal, check or MO. You can see more of my work at facebook.com/jwccustom57
