Top one is the "Kansas" bowie...Ernie Grospitch is who I had make it.
Second down is the French Longknife...Billy Watson was the maker on this one.
Third down is a drop point Ernie made.
Last is my patch knife that Billy made up for me.

Thanks guys.
Recently had another drop point made by Ernie...sending it to South Africa as payment to a young man that is making me a real fine powder horn. Course he don't know it and his dad is having a hard time keeping it to himself. Will be a one of a kind for sure.

Quigley,
Those are some beautiful blades you got there. I am a big hunter and particularly like the skinner. I have just completed my first Damascus skinner and am excited to share it with you.

Quigley, I just got around to taking pictures of that skinner. I used a random pattern Damascus blade (7 1/4" long, 3" blade), bird's eye cherry wood scales, mosaic pins, and vine file work on the tang.

Very nice blades, QS! I have a coupla Watson's, but not as nice as yours.
That French number, with a little shorter blade, would go real nice with my long-rifle flinter. And the patch knife is a gem!
Thanks for posting 'em.
