Love the blade shape Gregory, and of course stag is always good. Can you get us a shot of the handle guard area?

Okay thats what I was thinking of Gregory. Like I said, like the blade shape and the stag. I like the shape of the guard, although I would have probably made the top part of the guard the same shape as the bottom, with the point. This would carry the design through in my opinion. I would also put a spacer between the guard and the stag. This would provide a transition from the guard to the stag handle. This is just my personal opinion and taste. I like that you filed the buttcap to match the stag. Nice large bowie, keep up the good work.

Got ya brion, and thank you for the input. This is my first Bowie and my first stag handle. A spacer would have been nice. Also your concept on blade to gaurd flow makes perfect sense to me. I can't wait to build another one. Thank you again!

Greg
