Vest Pocket Bowie

[JamesPEmmons]

Here is a knife I had on my table at the CKG show. Thank you Murray for the great photo.

The knife is 10-1/2” overall with a 5-1/2” blade forged from 52100. It is around 3/16" thick at the riassco and hand rubbed to 800 grit. The guard and ferrule have been made from 152 layer random pattern welded steel with stainless spacers and doomed pin. The handle is an awesome piece of Honduras Rosewood burl.

Thank you for looking and all comments are welcomed.

Great looking knife with a fantastic piece of rosewood. I'm loving everything about this knife, not usually keen on small guards , ok I know it's a vest Bowie, but I do like this one
