Mini Bowie for a Belly Button ring

[Dan Gray]

here is the blade for the mini Bowie I'm making
blade 1 9/16" hollow grind, O1 edge quenched,
In one of the pictures it's setting inside a Tiger lilly
when done it should be just 2 1/8" long
and will have a Ivory and German silver handle.
what do you think?
maybe we can get Donna to show one on her
BB ring when finished with sheath
what do you think Donna E

well what did you grind this little baby on, a 3/16" wheel?

 

[Dan Gray]

Hi Guy
on a 3" wheel
these are a lot harder to make then the big boyz
and have them look right too.
I'm going to make one 1" long too
that will be fun

Hey Bruce Thanks for the call
I enjoyed it,
sorry I had to cut you off, I don't like doing that., .
I should know better then Heat treat during the day.
that with customers coming in.
As it was
I got a glitch in the power and my oven shut down anyway__ AHHHH
but caught it in time to reheat OK.
being a one man show you know how it is,
You didn't say if you'll have time to
get both the bowies back to me on time
for the show and photo shoot?
If not I'll work around it..I don't want to push you.

We'll get Donna something to wear. Later
