Shark Fin Bowie

[TK Steingass]

Greetings Gentlemen:

Some guys call this prominent swedge a harpoon - it looks like a Shark Fin to me. This is a light/fast bowie - the majors were ground on a large radius platen - the swedge on a 3" wheel. I bought a huge block of crotch flame figure Claro Walnut and had K&G stabilize it so my wood stash is building up.

All comments welcome.

Happy New Year,

TK
