Greetings Everyone:

This bowie was designed primarily by Les Robertson - Les specified the blade and guard profile with stag. The coined spacer/butt cap and hollow grinds are my contribution. This bowie has neutral balance at the guard. All comments welcome.

V/R,

TK

.250" W-2 Stock
OAL 13"
BL 8"
Hollow ground blade/swedge with distal taper
Rounded spine/ricaasso edge
Coined copper spacer and domed butt cap
Popcorn figure Sambar Stag

Good looking knife Tim, is this part of the Vanguard line or is it still going on. I've seen some nice knives Les has had made over the years.

Thanks Doug - no this is not a Vanguard Line knife. Yep - Les has a good eye for what sells. :)

Still a looker, keep up the great work your a man of different styles for sure and it's hard to keep up with all the nice designs in knives you've made. Have a great day Tim it's off to the grind stone so to say. :thumbup:
 
Now hat really is a nice looking knife, and that is one of the nicest looking pieces of stag I've seen lately.
 
Interesting design. Is there a purpose for the protruding swedge? CRK also put one on his Umkhombe design, and I don't really understand what it's for.
