In the earlier days of my knifemaking development roughly 2010-2014 when Bladeforums was IT and there was no better place, I was enamored with Don Hanson and his hamon bowies with walrus. It took me a long time to where I felt confident making one. I've had this piece of walrus at least 5 years, maybe 6. The steel in this one is some of Don's W2 2" round bar that I bought on the secondary market through the BF classifieds. Fittings are browned mild with stainless spacers.

Nice piece. The browned fittings go great with the ivory. Not sure what happened to the forums but Im guessing instagram took some of the fun away. I am guilty of this myself. This place used to THRIVE!
