Rusty Polk, Journeyman Smith of the ABS, is forging as fast as he can and came out with this beauty - another cutting competition legal Bowie. Some people get a little confused and may take the word "competition" to mean that the knife is not made like a weapon. Trust me - this knife is a DEADLY WEAPON, so don't think you're buying anything less than a masterpiece in steel.
Unfortunately, due to a growing client list and a minimum ammount of time, many of the knives we buy sell before we can even get them up on the site! Thats not a bad thing! The more we move, the more we can search out new makers with new ideas and creations! Anyhow, this knife is one such example and is already sold. We decided to put it up just to keep you up to date with what Rusty is up to as he heads toward his goal of becoming an ABS Master Smith in a short time to come.
To the man who bought this knife - thank you and I know you will enjoy this one more than you think. The Steel is Heat Treated and the temper lines are made visible. The mirror finished edge gives an awesome touch. The construction is solid, heavy - but in the right places. Superbly balanced - durable, flexible yet harder than rock, this edge will hold and hold and is easy to resharpen. Try an Arkansas Soft Stone.
We will keep in touch with Rusty and we will have new creations from him in the near future. Thanks for stopping by and if you have any questions, requests or anything like that, don't hesitate to contact us. We can find the knives you want! Let us know what you - our collectors and supporters - want to see on our site in the future!
