Thats one sweet Bowie
Yes, Indeedy!
It's a great repro. Sorry you had trouble, but it seems to have worked out well.
There are some problems OFTEN with some craftsmen. 'Specially if they're just getting started. It seems like that they turn out some genuinely good products; people take special notice then tell their friends; and then before ya know what has happened, they've got more business than they can handle. It seems to happen often with good leather crafters in our circle of fun!
Anyhoo, your knife turned out great, and from what the picture shows, is a dead-ringer of a museum piece!!!!! Thanks for sharing.
