Description: Aaron Wilburn, who was honored as a journeyman smith in June 2009, creates knives for the serious knives and this bowie is a great example of his work.
The large damascus blade was forged to shape from his own damascus. The laddered random pattern immediately grabs attention. The substantial blade is distal tapered for optimal balance. A rounded spine assures comfort. The clip is fully sharpened without secondary bevel.
The stag handle is surrounded by alternating nickel silver and black fiber spaces. These spacers assist the handle to adjust to temperature and humidity changes when used out in the field. The nickel silver pommel and spacers have been carved to match the texture of the antler.
The knife is accompanied by a hand stitched leather sheath. Aaron has made the strap detachable, allowing it to be replaced if the blade ever cuts or damages the strap.
Exceptional work throughout!
