I finished this one about a month ago. It is my attempt at a gentleman's bowie that was given to my brother this Christmas. Forged 5160, 5.25" blade, 10"oa, stainless fittings. Red liner and camel bone for ferrule, African blackwood handle.

Oh. I like that one a lot!

Perfect for tucking inside one's vest on a river boat ride.
