South American Bowie

[J. Neilson]

This piece is going to take a tour in beautiful South America..... can't wait for pix.

A good gent asked me to make a variation of a "Bagwell-style" Bowie to take on a (business... LOL) trip. The blade is 10" of Gas-rig Cable Damascus (a lot of that going on in PA now). The S-guard with "clam shell tips" is carbon steel with my "antiqued" finish. The handle is an Amber Stag crown with a 3-piece throat/spacers of laminate damascus sandwiched between two fullered pieces of carbon steel with an antiqued finish. The handle is set with a blued, peened carbon steel pin. The whole thing is almost 16".

That's a truly incredible knife, not a single thing about it I don't like. I'm sure it'll make an impression down there.
