The blade for this Bowie is made from a random pattern Damascus steel. It has a blade length of 236mm, is 49mm wide at the start of the clip, is 6mm thick on the spine and has an overall length of 400mm. The spine has fancy file work running from the ricasso to the start of the false clip and the Damascus blade is made from 220 layers of 1075, 15N20 and pure nickel. The blade has been dipped in ferric chloride to bring out the Damascus pattern. There are three coined nickel silver spacers seperating the carbon steel S-shaped handguard and the wrought iron bolster. The wrought iron bolster has been forge welded from four seperate pieces with three fine layers of pure nickel in between.
The antler handle is made from a fallow stag crown which has been dyed and has a decorative stone placed into the crown and surrounded by a copper wire frame. The native American style sheath has a rawhide wrapped outer surface over a wet formed leather interior. It is adorned with five danglers with padre beads, metal beads and finished with horse hair filled brass cones. The sheath has been aged and has a deer skin fringe all long one edge.
