Lively Frontier Bowie




Tim says "Here's a frontier bowie with a hammer finish hand forged out of 0-1 tool steel and is selectively tempered. The blade is 8 inches long and the overall length is 12 3/8 inches. It has a file worked back. The handle is Osage Orange with copper spacers and brass pins. It comes with a heavy duty leather sheath."

And I say, it is awesome! I knew this would be my favourite piece as soon as I saw it. The fit and finish and attention to detail are excellent, this knife is a work of art. I can hardly bear to put it down to type

Tim's photograph doesn't show all the detail, the two little curls at the choil and the fileworked spine especially. Marian's sheath is great too, subtle hand-tooling and a great handmade copper rivet.

Well that's what I said a couple of weeks ago. No change yet!

Roger
