Mike Craddock · Feb 6, 2008

Good morning guys

On the last Bowie I posted I got a couple of suggestions from IG and Bruce Bump, this is the results.
Comments please.
Your comments and suggestion are another way to let me look at things through someones eyes other than my own.

Thanks
Mike

Thats outstanding paratus !! Nice looking damascus, did you make that too ? Brass, bronze, ironwood ? We're going to need some close-ups of that handle and a few more details on this one bro

Nice work though, real nice :thumbup:
