Damascus Blank Blade Partial Tang with Brass Bolster Hunting Bowie Knife

This blade is handmade from hundreds of layers of alternating 1095 steel and 15n20. As you may know, 1095 is traditional and sought-after American high carbon steel that is prized for knife blades. It is hardened to about 57-60 on the Rockwell C scale (HRC). This blade is a serious blade that will work well for hunting and outdoor activities. It can be easily sharpened at home or in the field and will hold an edge very well. It is genuine layered Damascus steel (not fake or imitation Damascus). Blank may require additional sharpening. Brass bolster (finger guard) will require polishing and/or buffing. Brass bolster is fitted to the tang. Brass pins are not required to attach the guard. Your handle will hold the brass guard in place.
