Raspbowie knife

I made this rasp file Bowie knife for a coworker with mesquite burl handles. I think it turned out great.

I like it, did you consider taking the swedge to the tip?

Well it was the first time I had a hollow grind look good so I didn't want to mess with it any more or I might mess it up.

I know the feeling.

Just turn the speed down and find the groove. I'm digging the hollow grind. When you get the channel set just watch the tip.

I tend to always get thin right at the belly before the tip, I just twist the blade in the direction I want to remove metal.

Yes, that did turn out great! I'd be proud of that.
