Just delivered these two hand engraved bowie knives to a pretty happy customer. One has stainless bolsters and it was a bit tough to cut and especially tough to prepare the settings for the sapphires. Again I used the double running leaf pattern I learned from Sam. The smaller bowie was easy to cut brass. I used a half running leaf pattern on that one. Comments and suggestions always welcome and appreciated!
