took me a while to see the "Bowie"
Turns out it is the awesome sword(!) at the top. Drool.
With this bad boy you don't have to be scared anymore when a Rhino charges towards you.

Unfortunately I'm leaving for a trip next week so no more packages for me for a little while. Some great deals here!
 
def, hope is with ndog and that great bowie ! and all the other great knives!
 
Thanks All! Dont know yet? Its killin me! No Rhinos Jens! Killer Rabbits maybe!
Hey Today is Friday 13th right?
 
I didn't expect another one so soon. Now I'm labeled a bald faced liar, maybe a little white lie and momma says a little white lie never hurt nobody. A man my age should always have 40 bucks in his pocket. It's been a good week for knives for me though. Would have been a perfect week with that Bilton on the way but alas we were close.
Now I ain't gonna say the next one but one day one will come home to me.
 
That Gelbu is SO calling my name. I can pick out a Tirtha made blade at a glance. The man just has a way with steel that catches my eye.
 
First Manakamana Special I've ever seen that didn't have a horn handle..........interesting.
 
Happy new huge bowie to you ndoghouse. I'd love to come to your house and hold that for a minute or two. Has to just be awesome beyond description and then some.
 
One heck of a DOD today, the sharks were circling like mad! Great to see everyone here.

Congratulations, that's a beauty. Be careful swinging it, because nothing in the vicinity is safe.

The posting doesn't say which kami made it, but I believe Vim makes most of the Giant Chitlangi Bowies.

I have one of the first five that were made, and it came with a dark satisal wood handle. The grain is so tight that it looks and feels like polished marble. This one is also beautiful and a great price.
 
Ha! Thats true! Im kinda used to swinging my 25in Siru but it isnt 52 ounzes either! I couldnt tell who it made by either. Ill let you know when I get it!
