Big Bowie/ custom Sheath

[DJTC45]

GrandTrino and 1911alltheway out did themselves this time. I asked GT to make me a Bowie Knife w/ an Antler Handle and Carbon Steel, and he knocked it out of the park for sure. It's a full 19" overall and a 12" blade and brass guard. 1911alltheway made the sheath for it and he out did himself on it also. He inlayed the front with genuine Alligator Skin, I asked him to make it like a holster instead of a dangler carry, well he came up with an idea to make it a Swivel style that snaps in place to hold vertical. These two gentleman are true craftsman at what they do. Here's the pics.

WOW!  Outstanding to both artists (too beautiful to be "work", has to be ART)

Now that is a KNIFE and a fine piece of work on the SHEATH!!!

Congrats to you DJTC45 on a great buy.

Man oh man can that guy make a sheath!!!!

I dig how you can release the snap to allow the handle to shift forward (and the blade back) when you sit down.  That is a really sweet design.

 

And GT's blade is awesome. I have a GT Bowie.  This one here is just beautiful.

And you can make a knife just from a few ideas that we discussed in just a few PM's. I might have another one in mind, I'll get with you in the next couple of months. Thanks again for making me this one.

Thanks for the compliments. I'll post the rest of the ones he made me over the years in the knife section
