SOLD to Dawkind Ben Tendrick High Cascade Bowie that comes with gorgeous rattlesnake sheath that is in the photos.
From Ben's original thread about making the Bowie and sheath: It has a crested spine that transitions into to the clip. The handle is dyed elk antler, and all the fittings are blued mild steel. I tried an etched and 1000grit hand rubbed finish. I also made a matching frog (another first) for the sheath and am waiting on some snake skin to complete the sheath.
It is not perfect, but I learned a lot along the way. OAL is 19.5", the blade is 13.75" of 5160.

I paid $375 for this massive Bowie and will sell for the same price. Please add $20 for insured shipping in USA. I prefer a USPS MO for payment, but PP is possible if shipping to your PP confirmed address and you add 4% to cover PP fees. If I know you, your personal check is fine.
