Big Bowie with ironwood

[J. Doyle]

Here's one I was commissioned to make for a collector. It is pretty close to one that I made for a show a few months back with a few minor differences.

Specs:

Forged from 1084 steel
16" overall, 10 1/2" blade, .225" thick at the ricasso
False edge, not sharp
Heavily rounded spine and ricasso edge
Black carbon fiber collars
Blued and coined spacer
Desert Ironwood handle

WOW that is stunning John. I really like the hamon activity on the blade.

One question : how do you do the "coin" on the spacer ?
