Mike Williams famous "Cloud Bowie"

How much is the knife and do you have pics? It's 0200 on the west coast. Going to sleep now, hope to hear from you in the morning.

BTW, I posted this when their was only 1 viewer of the thread.

Gaberdude,
Thanks a bunch for doing the pic thing.sometimes I get a bit confused.:)
 
nifrand, I don't think it's fair that you give it away for free. So I'll take it for $100 shipped :p :D

Thanks, I'm passing on this. Thought the price would be less.

.. I thought it would be more! Great knife Randy, great maker. Your collection is stunning but I can't have them all :(

For those who missed it originally (and the better photos - sorry Randy:o ) this knife gets its name (given by its maker) from its unique hamon.

Here's a better look at why this bowie is so appropriately named:

Not something you see every day.

Look closely at the surface of the steel.

And think of the years...and years...of experience necessary to create such beauty. Admittedly, you'd see more in person with good lighting.

It's worth it!:thumbup:
 
Received your multiple emails. You'll sell this in a hearbeat. A great maker apparently and a great knife.

Hope this bumps you up to the top too oh great collector;)
 
Regarding your above post, please re read that I passed on this. I was the first to see it at about 2 in the morning and responded as most prudent shoppers to on the forum right away, hoping to get a deal. This is what shoppers do. It wasn't priced low enough for me. Maybe others, but not for my particular wallet. So I passed on it as stated in the thread and in my emails to you. I had to state this several times, yet you still emailed me, hounding me, and searching for any other posts I have made. Strange behaviour. Although I like a certain maker, I cannot exclude others from my interest. Besides the price and pic weren't posted orginally.

I responded to you in emails that I wan't interested several time, when I communicated with you through emails. You can move on to other buyers. Why did you post this symbol :jerkit: above in your last post? You seem to be argumentative and focused on me although I have expressed disinterest. Please move on. I became disinterested when the tone of your emails seemed confrontational. Here are just some of the mails you sent me as I was telling you several times that I wasn't interested. You kept emailing me and now post the above. Sorry to air dirtly laundry, but your tone is not welcome by me.

See email examples...

My post after doing research:

Funny, thing. I see it available on the net for $1200

I didn't post anything but asking for pictures and the price. You have been rude, emailing me with your opinions of my interest. These are my interests.

I wanted the knife.

Please go away. Goodbye again.
