As long as we're talking about Bowies, here's mine, a new D-Guard. It arrived yesterday from Chris (@2Wheels4Ever) at Iron Ridge Ranch.
I supplied the antler and some basic input, but Chris truly designed and created a beautiful beast of a knife.
It's hand forged 5160 steel, the blade is about 10.5", about 2.75" wide and it weighs 2.4lbs. He also made the sheath.
I wanted a button type of sheath that you can slip behind your belt for such a large knife. In the old days it went behind a sash and was sometimes called a sash sheath.
He sent me pics of the work in progress but I don't want to clutter up the thread, so here's the basics.
