I found this floating on Ebay a while back... I bought it mainly because it was a carbon blade and also a bowie style knife profile. Anyway I finally found a piece of stag material that would work and built/finished it. Figured I would share and maybe someone would recognize the blade, manufacturer or what type of knife it was originally made for. This was sold to me as a blank ready to build but it had the thickness of pre tempering so I had to do some clean up and grinding.. not sure of the grind marks on the one side tang... marked made in USA and Carbon... I may sell it, but I kinda like the way it came out.

Looks pretty good. I like that style of bowie.
