decided whilst im on my mad building rampage to have a go at this just because its too cool looking, this is my interpretation of said, its sort of a sax like blade its 74 cm lon and just under 8 at its widest point.made from steel plate,wood and leather, painted the handle to look more like bone, deliberatly left the blade looking crappy so it looks like it has spent time above the wall

Here my mega bowie I've been working on the last few weeks. Not finished here it is out of the tempering oven at 120grit. It might be awhile before it's finished have a lot of other things to get did first. 1084 steel, 16 1/2in blade, 6in back edge, 3/16in thick, full flat grind, 5 3/8in long tang. Don't known what wood I'll use for handle scales yet. Maybe purpleheart, zebrawood, lacewood or bocate.

Loving these yataghan style knives. Freq i'd love to see you start doing cutting videos as they'd be a hoot watching you destroy random stuff :lol: . Fallen that blade looks like it wants to decapitate just lying there.Not sure what grip would suit it best,but i'd be tempted for wood and stacked leather
