8" Bowie with Honduras Rosewood burl

Just got this one all done. It's headed with me to Seattle this weekend. All comments welcome.

Hand forged from 1075 steel
13" overall, 8" blade, .220" at the ricasso with full distal taper
Clip is just shy of sharp
Rounded spine and ricasso
My own damascus fittings
Coined German silver spacers
Honduras Rosewood Burl handle, carved and sculpted
Checkered steel assembly screw
