New Bowie

Very nice! Did you have it made for you, or was it already available? Not that it matters, I've had knives made, and bought others off of a table at a show. They cut the same, which is all that really matters, but there's just a bit more pride in ownership of a blade made specifically for you. Regardless, that's a really good looking knife, and I'm glad you get to carry it! And, please, find SOMETHING to use it on besides cat-litter. Carve a ham, or cut a steak with it, if nothing else(preferably at home, don't wanna scare the straights TOO badly, tho I don't know you, I could be wrong on that!). A knife that never cuts anything is like a Ferrari that never gets driven. Pretty, but really just an expensive paperweight...

I agree Jed. I'll get some pics when we go to the Alamo.
Cut a steak he says. Hmm
A couple of us may start a thread about the event. No promises at this time.

Forgot to add. Not made specifically for me but I understand the special pride you speak of.

That's a Texas blade if I've ever seen one! It's most certainly a looker too.

I'd agree with the blade size as well, I know some people love a 14" Bowie strapped on to their belt, but I'm a fan of the "less is more" idea(though it's not like a 9" blade is less, haha). Fantastic purchase.

Thanks bud. I settled on the same sentiment. 9 inches ain't small.

Ok,ok...I know. That's what she said.

I didn't really need it for anything in particular, just felt like buying something to celebrate the knife law repeal in Texas.

• I hear ya. I got a big, sweet Bowie from Matt Lamey a few years ago. Didn't really need a big, sweet Bowie but I sure like having it! Enjoy that sweet piece you got!

They have knife laws in Texas?

Not for long.
