S-guard Bowie- Bronze and textured redwood burl
Here's a nice medium sized bowie I just finished today. All comments, critique, discussion and/or opinions welcome. I particularly like the 'ghost' hamon above the main transition line. Also, how the figure and color changes in the redwood are still visible through the texturing.
Specs: Hand forged from 1075 steel, clay quenched and etched 13" overall, 8" blade, .225" thick at the ricasso Radical distal taper, clip is just shy of sharp Bronze guard and spacer Stabilized Redwood burl, sculpted, carved and textured Checkered stainless steel finial nut __________________ John Doyle You have nothing to fear but fear itself...........and bears. |
