......Bruce (among others) I took your advise, sketched and erased, and again.....put it aside for a bit......went and worked in the shop for a bit, came back, had a coffee , slept on it , LOL, and just now grabbed the pencil and eraser again, getting close I think , any input is very welcomed........now I have a couple days to ponder as I'm off to Vegas this afternoon for the Mine Expo....

Hi Rob, sorry I'm a couple months late to this party.. Your drawing looks good to me. I see you have dimensions added resembling a true plan or blue print. Did you build this Bowie? I,d like to have a look at the finished knife
