Vintage Bowie
Hi, folks! This is a Bowie knife recently completed, made ​​from a very old file. The proposal was to
build a knife with a more ancient look. All carbon steel, with handle of deer horn (crown).
The sheath is in natural leather sewn by hand, made in two pieces.

OAL: 320 mm
BL: 197 mm
BW: 34 mm
BT: 4 mm

I hope you enjoy!

Best regards

Man that thing is great! I love how you did the sheath. Looks like you got some real interesting effects going on with the blade too.

I love both pieces. Each piece complements the other quite nicely, but my personal preference leans towards the sheath. Excellent design, styling and craftsmanship throughout.
