Forged Bowie NEW
I really like the patina effect on the blade of this 10.5" bowie. The blade was forged from an old harrow spring and I left the hammer marks to show the heritage. The patina is a result of applying the parkerizing solution on the blade while there was still some denatured alcohol on it. I was going to redo it but it was too cool to remove. The blade has a tapered tang and the handle is exhibition grade black walnut burl with brass pins.
