Now that's a knife there mate. Very nice.

If it is made to the same standards as the shrew hawk I may have to order that one.

YEAH BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! love those BIG knives!

You can make a big knife do a little knife's job, but you can't make a little knife do a big knife's job.

Thats not a knife its a short sword. But its a beauty.

Nice sword, Ron!! It sure looks good, but I like my knife to be shorter than my bow, and I don't want to give up my Classic Hunters and Lil' Favorites!

Nice Hog sticker!  

I think Jim would approve Ron.

Nice job!

God bless,Mudd

I hope to have some sheath pictures next week. The Sheaths that Art Vincent is making will have the double belt loop on the back to allow the knife to be carried low on the belt or high under the arm on a shoulder strap.

 

Hmmm, I think that would be just right for peeling apples for apple pie up at Shrewhaven Lodge.  It might even be big enough to gut one of those legendary bucks from Armstrong Creek and if nothing else, big enough to scare the Ghost of Armstrong Creek away.  

Damn you Ron!!! I gotta get one.  I saw that in your "companions of the hunt" thread and wondered why you weren't selling them. What kinda wait we talking when ordering one?

Very Nice

Ron: Love both the knives you make and Your Bows.  Own Only 2 Bows  though, need many more.

Don

Izzy, I sent you a PM    

Beautiful!!!!!   :eek:

Cold Steel?

 

Ron,

That is an impressive knife in every sense of the word. I like the historical note on your website about the origin of Bowie knives. What has been done to the blade to give it that antiqued look? Is it a bluing of some type from using bluing salts? I did see this statement on your website: "We age our blades with a chemical that gives them the mottled appearance of being color case-hardened which helps to resist rusting somewhat." The finish produces a very nice rustic (not rusty) aura, similar to your other knives and your hawks. They all look like period pieces from the mountain man era. Very nice!

Allan

Thank you Alan. As for the finish on the blade, it's a "mystery"..  

I do know that over time and with use, the mottled look will wear off to a dull gray. I think the dull gray gives the knife an old time look not unlike the blades carried by mountainmen and hunters of yesteryear..      

 

Good lookin' blade Ron   .  I'm a sucker for Bowies, I've got about a dozen of 'em right now.  Recently I've switched to colleting hawks.  My wife just doesn't understand.
