Mike Williams has been on my radar for a while, but tracking down his work is a bit of a challenge. Les Robertson is credited with a serious assist on tracking down this beauty. This Bowie also managed to win Best forged Non Damascus Knife at Blade 2005 for Mike. :thumbup:

BTW, the hunter is full sized, the Bowie has a 12 inch blade!

Talk about a dynamic duo.You have the most amazing collection,just from the few I've seen,you are a very lucky man!The Bowie is huge and beautiful.Congrats,Peter! :cool: :D I'm not forgetting that Hunter,just perfectly done. :thumbup:
 
Peter, thank you very much for these last few posts. It's great to see such well made knives captured perfectly. You have one hell of a collection, that's for sure :).
 
I love these matched sets and this one is really fine. I got to handle that bowie at Blade and it is an impressive piece of work. The hunter is icing on the cake. Now you need to comission a set of matching sheaths...
