Hand Forged Bowie KnifesteemCreated with Sketch.

in steembay •  7 years ago 

This Hand Forged Bowie Knife is up for auction! Made from a Nicholson file/rasp. I forged it into the general shape, careful not to lose the patterns on the file. Finished it off on the grinder and have given it a proper heat treat. This 5 3/8" long blade sits into a thick piece of antler making it 11" overall. The blade has been pinned into the handle with a mosaic pin with a polished brass finger guard in between. Nice and sharp, it does not come with a sheath. Buyer pays $20 shipping anywhere in the continental US. I am a blacksmith & knife maker of 8yrs, and metal fabricator for 21yrs image image image image image. image image imagePlease upvote, resteem, and follow me to see what I'll make next!

It's a beauty. What is the second last image showing?

Good afternoon, the second from the last picture is showing the straightness and pattern on the spine of the blade.

The #steembay Auction has finished without a bid...
