*SOLD* Frontier Bowie in Stabilized Curly Walnut

[Robert Erickson]

Gentlemen,
Here is my take on a classic Bowie. I wanted to pair classic elements such as Walnut and brass but with a modern steel. I think they will work well together. The pouch style leather sheath is being made currently.

SPECS:
OAL: 13.0"
BLADE: 7.5" long, 1.75" wide. It has been belt finished to 400 grit . The grind is hybrid flat/convex which is down to 0.012" before sharpening.
STEEL: 0.175" Z Tuff carbon steel heat treated to RC61.
HANDLE: Stabilized Curly Walnut and a blackened brass guard with a textured face. The spacers are black and natural micarta.
SHEATH: Pouch style leather
PRICE: $420 Shipped USPS in the CONUS international buyers welcome, shipping extra.
Paypal, checks or money orders accepted.
Post "I'll take it" here in this thread and then PM or email me for arrangements. I have this posted on Instagram as well.
Comments/Questions/Critiques welcome.
Thanks for looking!

Really like that one. Nice and sleek and a bowie you can use for multiple things.

Beautiful in some tough steel as well.

Robert, if you don't mind my asking, what are the dimensions of the tang?

I assume it's got the same thickness (*.175"), but what is the height/width in the handle?

Robert, if you don't mind my asking, what are the dimensions of the tang?

The hidden part of the tang tapers slightly from 0.175" to the end and is 3.75" long.
Then handle dimensions are:
5.25" length from front of guard to butt along the spine.
4.25" length from front of guard to "beak"
1.5" tall at the widest, 1.25" tall at the narrowest.
