bowie blades, full tang or hidden tang?
Hello,
I have a bar of pattern welded damascus steel im going to have a tang welded on then cut into a bowie shape. My question/concern is this for stability and reliability do I go with a full tang or a hidden tang? the thickness of the billet is 1/8" and going to be a classic drop point flat ground.
