Well last year I broke my beloved Laredo Bowie so I thought I would go for something a little more up market and contacted Tad about making me a Big Bowie knife and he kindly obliged and this knife shall be heading to me soon :D

First off I sent a few little sketches of the kind of thing I was looking for:

Then Tad got on the anvil and came up with this:

Fantastic!!

I've had him make me one of his Turkey Mountain choppers in 52100, and it is one my favorite knives.

I'm currently waiting on another knife from him as well. Tad is a very talented maker.
 
Very nice. I like the texture on the guard and everything else. I like seeing that little "JS" peeking out from under the tape too.:)
 
Pootsy, I hope you like it. I appreciate everyone's kind words.

I have to admit I was a little nervous using the JS stamp for the first time--I'm used to etching my mark.

Tad
