Very nice. Do you have a picture of the other side, and of the final/endcap.

Otherwise, your just teasing me!
 
Bill - Splendid bowie - great work :thumbup:
 
That thing looks sleek and deadly--just beautiful, Bill. :thumbup:

Love the juxtaposition of that stag with the dramatic Damascus pattern. Looks great as a complement to the "plain" steel blade--especially with that nice hamon. Great package.
 
Just beautiful Bill! You have a great eye/mind for design and the skilled hands needed to bring those ideas to life for all of us to see. This is a perfect example of why I love your work!
 
Who says there is no good stag out there :) Great piece

I was thinking the same thing. I believe that stag has gotten to a high enough price that folks who have been holding the really good stuff for years are starting to let it go.

In regard to the knife, the beautiful guard and spacers do an amazing job of transitioning from incredible handle to blade. Very nice. :thumbup::thumbup:
 
I havr been trying for ten minutes to come up with a bad comment or a nitpick. Giving up in frustration.
 
while the lines are awesome, the hamon kicks ass and the stag rocks, I'm having a hard time with the damascus fitting and the wire thing.
the design I think is a winner, and if I were ever to get one made for myself, I'd spec blued polished or satin finished fittings, and no extra embellishment.
I really like this knife, so please don't get me wrong :)
 
That hamon is perfectly placed. I bet it will perform as well as it looks. Beautifully.
