    Amboyna Burl Bowie

    Hi All,

    Haven't posted in a long time so I thought I would. Finished this morning. Blade is 5160, 10 inches long, sharpened clip, satin finished to 400 grit. Fittings are 416 stainless. Guard has a radius filed in the edge that is mirror polished. There is a piece of copper sandwiched in the middle of the spacer. The handle is some beautiful amboyna burl 5 1/4 inches long, contoured with a palm swell and flared butt.

    Thank you for looking.

    That long clip gives it a nice flowing profile. Very clean, nicely done!

    Always a sucker for burl. That is a beauty!
    I'm going to guess that all of your failures prior to the "revolution" will pale in comparison to how hard your life will be afterward. You will not rise to the occasion. If you can't succeed in a structured, ordered society, you will continue to fail miserably when winning friends and influencing people becomes vitally important.
