    South American Bowie

    This piece is going to take a tour in beautiful South America..... can't wait for pix.



    A good gent asked me to make a variation of a "Bagwell-style" Bowie to take on a (business... LOL) trip. The blade is 10" of Gas-rig Cable Damascus (alot of that going on in Pa now). The S-guard with "clam shell tips is carbon steel with my "antiqued" finish. The handle is an Amber Stag crown with a 3-piece throat/spacers of laminate damascus sandwiched between two fullered pieces of carbon steel with an antiqued finish. The handle is set with a blued, peened carbon steel pin. The whole thing is almost 16".

















    Not too bad for a born and bred Jersey boy, huh?

    Absolutely fantastic work J...

    I'm surprised he didn't opt for Bagwell's typical blade catcher style guard though.

    Well, he did originally but, switched to the S-guard. Makes it look more "Neilson"...
