Here's a big "frame handle" Bowie just finished for a fellow THF member. He's welcome to raise his hand here if he'd like. It's W2 steel with Mesquite handle and file worked stainless liners.

Thank you David for bringing my vision to reality. This was a 'bucket list' item for me and you delivered in spades. My first custom knife, and it will not be my last. David listened, advised, and delivered for me.

Thank you sir!!

Good looking knife.
