Bowie with hamon in W2. Copper fittings with antler. The plan for the hamon was for it to look like flame -- I'm pretty happy with how it turned out.
I've been in semi-retirement from bladesmithing now that I'm a father with a full-time job. I miss bladesmithing. This is my last unfinished project with help from Josiah Boomershine completing the polish and Two Drunken Celts doing the sheath.
I got a lot of help from folks here on the handle assembly -- much thanks forumites!
