5160/L6 Damascus Bowie Done

[Greg Covington]

Here are the pics of the Bowie that I finished from the billet posts that I made in shop talk.

5160/L6 Damascus at 114 layers....the blade is 8.5" long and 5/16" at the spine. The guard and ferrule are of the same Damascus and the handle is nicely figured Gaboon Ebony.

In hand:

At 8.5" the knife feels alot bigger in the hand....perhaps because the long dropped clip?

Greg, Very, very nice! Looks like a fast in the hand knife. Take care.

Greg, that is a hell of a knife. They're getting better, if that's even possible . I'm looking forward to checking this one out in person.
