Confederate Bowie

I haven't posted for a while so I thought that I would show you a bowie that I built for a customer who wanted a confederate flag in the handle. I make it from some box elder burl that was dyed red & blue when stabilized with mosaic pins for the stars. Blade is 7" & 12" OAL.





Hope you like it.

Gary

Looking good Gary. That had to be quite a challenge in order for everything to come together as it did.

BTW... Congrats on being in the latest Blade magazine.

Thanks. Glad you liked it. The glue up was a little tricky as there are 15 pieces to the handle as well as the "stars".

I haven't gotten my "Blade" copy yet but glad that it looked good.
