Title: First Bowie
Post by: Emmons on March 05, 2010, 02:43:00 PM

I purchased a light box and took some quick photos of my first Bowie.  It still needs a sheath and some time playing with my better camera (there were shot with a 2 megapixel point and shoot).

Specs.
7-1/2" Blade
About 13" total lenght
O1 heat treated to RC58-59
416 Stainless Steel guard and ferrule
Desert Ironwood handle with 416 stainless pins

Let me know what you think.

Thanks,

James
