: Aaron Wilburn became a journeyman smith in June of 2009 and a master smith in 2013. He has incredible control over damascus that few others can replicate. Aaron creates serious knives for some of the most avid collectors and this bowie is an tremendous example of his work!
The 6-1/2 inch damascus blade on this bowie was forged by Aaron from 1084 and 15n20 carbon steels to provide excellent edge holding. The high layer pattern is extremely engaging. The clip point stops short of being fully sharpened and could be sharpened if a double edge is desired. Aaron’s mark is on the left side of the blade, and his MS mark is on the right side.
The handle features a central column of premium Sambar stag. The natural texture of the stag provides a comfortable, non-slip grip. The forged S-guard and pommel are antique wrought iron. The pommel is nicely sculpted to match the natural shape of the stag. A fluted bronze spacer is surrounded by coined stainless spacers finishing the handle.
To keep the knife close at hand, a black leather custom sheath made by Aaron is included.
Exceptional work throughout!
