San Mai Bowie

[Matt Behnke]

Heres a san mai bowie I just finished up. The san mai is 303 stainless/80CRV2 with a 6" blade. Guard is aged bronze that's heirloom fit to a slim profile curly acacia handle. Definitely plan to make some more of these larger blades in the future, plus the sculpted guards are a fun challenge to do!

Thanks for looking!

That's gorgeous man, nice work. A long narrow bladed version would be awesome.

Thank you! Was very happy with how the guard turned out, especially considering how much of a pain bronze is to work with haha
