Beautifull knife. Here carrying any kind of knife outside woods is prohibited, unless you're wearing traditional costume wich includes traditional knife.

( Said in a Crocodile Dundee-ish accent) Now THAT'S a knife!

Thank you for sharing this beautiful gift.

That is my favorite from that movie. Your knife is indeed awesome.

thanks for the comment,
In the UK the largest knife that can be carried in public is a 3 inch folding pocket type, and if stopped you will need a reason for having it.

Don't think I could live in a country that had that much control - and I don't even carry a knife, much less CC. Just seems wrong.

All those comments are impossible to follow in appraisal. I LOVE IT! As kids we used to pretend we had Bowie knives, as I'm sure most of the readers did too, and we would practice throwing these as close to & between the other guys feet/foot and then narrow the distance between our feet with knees trembling. My favourite copy of the bowie knife, I think was a nemrod divers knife, which had a similar shape but onky about a 20 cm blade ( might still have it in my fishing gear as it was great for sharks, long toms, salt cat fish, & grinners brought aboard.

True work of art Dan & useful to boot.

Just wanted to say that is impressive. Fantastic work!
