Description: Jay's knives have that extra quality that draw my eye and make me take them out and look at them when I have them. They are inspirational. From when I first began forging, the mastersmith that I worked under told me about Jay's work. This Damascus bowie is no exception. Mirror polished Damascus is rare to begin with, and to combine that with such clarity and clean etch is astounding. The handle is contoured to give a comfortable grip. The sheath is a work of art unto itself that compliments this knife perfectly. The fit and finish, as you would expect, is beyond compare. This large Bowie was featured in Knives Illustrated.
