I just quenched this bowie and it's in the oven now. I think it will be a good'n. 10 inches long and 2 1/16 inch wide.

Nice! That's going to be a big one. I love watching your WIP threads.
Thanks for sharing.

Looking forward to see what you do with this one.
Well, I got it done but I did not take many pictures. Here is the finished knife.

Awesomeness!!
Can I borrow that piece of stag?
I do not know where you are getting that stag material Lin but every piece is better than the last. And the first piece I saw I thought was on the top shelf.

Lin outstanding very nice work...
Lin you keeping that one to carry? How do you like the rawhide sheath, havent you had a couple of those made???
Yes, I'm keeping it. My son requested a rawhide sheath and I thought we would keep the same look in the family. It has required my sheath maker to develope some new methods to make it work.
I had the pleasure of handling this package yesterday at Jerry Fisk's shop visit. The stag is perfect in the picture but in person it is unbelievable. Such depth in the color and feals great in the hand. The sheath was very well executed much to the credit of the sheath maker.
Sure makes a guy wish this quality of stag were easier to come by.
Chris
That is an incredible package.
Thats is some really great stag ,fits knife perfectly!
Thanks. Here's the knife in the sheath.

I love the knife and sheath, but that hatchet head holds my attention. The profile is my idea of perfect. If and when you start selling those, let me know. That would be an excellent to both my living history and bushcrafting kits. As always, inspiring work!
Lin, the more I look at that knife, the more beautiful it becomes. I have to admit I'm having some feelings of lust! How sick am I?
Allan
Amar911. I share the same sickness! It must be something going around on this thread ;) !
One of these days, Mr. Lin, I'm going to own one of your knives!!
Thank you gentlemen.
Bob, I hate to tell you this, but you can't own just one of Lin's knives! It's the sickness, you know.
