I purchased a light box and took some quick photos of my first Bowie.  It still needs a sheath and some time playing with my better camera (there were shot with a 2 megapixel point and shoot).

Specs.
7-1/2" Blade
About 13" total lenght
O1 heat treated to RC58-59
416 Stainless Steel guard and ferrule
Desert Ironwood handle with 416 stainless pins



Let me know what you think.

Thanks,

James

You should be really proud of that one.
When the last deer disappears into the morning mist,
When the last elk vanishes from the hills,
When the last buffalo falls on the plains,
I will hunt mice for I am a hunter and I must have my freedom.
