Nice looking damascus Clint but I can't decide which handle material I like best...the stag or the masking tape....:biggrin:

I was going to say something about the way the lovely blue scales went with the blade pattern; man am I glad it was early and my brain wasn't fully awake. The stag will be nice:happy:
 
ok so i've been redoing my motor of my jeep and its taken most of my time and oya that evil work and my achilles tendon is doing evil things to me can't even walk by the end of the day,made some time for the bowie today i've got to get this done just to get steel money for more raffles ,i shaped the guard today it made from the same steel as the knife i just have not etched it yet i need to do some file work but its "the bowie " is getting there.
