Title: ST. JUDES Bloodwood BOWIE
Post by: SKYLER W on May 08, 2009, 09:18:00 PM

This is a little different for us. It is L-6, Heat Treated, Blade is 8in. and Over-all lenght is 12.5 in...False edge 3in. from the tip.....Handles are Bloodwood...Sheath is hand stitched with Ostrich insert.....We found a pic of a 1840's bowie and this is our best Try at a copy of it....This knife feels very good in the hand....We like it so much that we made a couple more blade blanks just like it... It's going over to the ST. Judes Auction now so someone else can play with it in a few weeks....BID HIGH FOR THE KIDS and watch for another Blade SET in a few days...It is gonna be a ST. Judes Item Also.....

Dang Sky,
You're like a great wine...just keep gettin' better & better.  Naw that's my line...those wine bottles are all dusty & old  :)

I'll start over...for a young whipper-snapper, you have certainly caught on to this knife makin' gig     :thumbsup:   That beauty will really help the kids...Doc
