I've been pretty busy lately doing all sorts of arcane stuff, but a couple of knives have emerged...
An 8" recurved hunter with naturally featured wrought iron bolsters, redwood burl handle.

and a bowie from a composite billet of wagon wheel wrought iron on the spine and clay quenched W2 on the edge. This was done by just butt-welding two bars of equal thickness. It is 12", with 8" blade, claro walnut handle and copper s-guard with 'battle scar' filework.

The first one is by far my favorite from you! That is my perfect knife!
Double nice!!
I love em both.
Scott, your quite the craftsman, fine work. It's a toss up for me, I like them both!
I recently forged a blade that reminds me of your Bowie, that will become a Sub Hilt some time soon I hope.

Nice knives! That bowie looks "Wicked"! Chad
Awesome! The top one is beautiful, and the redwood just puts it over the top.
