Default W2 and Stag Bowie

Here is a piece of Sambar Stag that I was able to keep 100% intact with no stock removal involved to make the various pieces fit!
In other words, from the face of the handle to the butt, no tapering was done to fit the spacer or butt cap - get it?
Now, the spacer is not a PERECT oval or circle, but, rather, made slightly out of shape to fit the face of the Stag.
Additionally, the butt cap was shaped to FIT the handle butt.
You get the point.
Forged and clayed 9 3/4" W2 blade and stainless take-down fittings complete the 14 3/4" package!
Soon available at: Individually Handcrafted Knives for the Outdoor Enthusiast
