For sale is a very large bowie knife - stamped GWB for Gray Wolf Blades. Here is a description from Atlanta Knives:
The makers design the blades for us and purchase German steel ( 1095HC) and Swedish nickel ( 15N20 ) from a German company named SANDVIK. The steel is shipped to England , where a blacksmith forges it to the makers specifications and ships the blades to them in Oregon and Pennsylvania.
They make their own handles and also do the acid etching , file work , and bolster work here in the United States. The handles are unique , and the Damascus work on the blades is top notch. The pins are brass , and the knives are built to last a lifetime. No two knives are the same.
The blades are heat treated to 58-60HRC, and they built to perform well in the field. The sheaths are top leather cowhide and are hand-stitched.
These knives are not built outside the U.S., nor or they machine made like so many on the market today.
These blades under normal wear and tear, are warranted for defects in materials and workmanship.
This is a massive knife - overall length is 16" and blade is 2" at its widest point. The blade is 10" and is 3/16" near the tang. Knife with sheather weighs a little over 2 lbs. Has a nice Damascus pattern and is as sharp as a scalpel. I reached into my safe to move a rifle last week and barely touched the edge and opened a small slit on my hand! Has a nice leather sheath that is not primitive, but would be easy to make a new primitive sheath for it.
It was an impulse buy for me and it has been setting in my safe for a few years so time for it to go to someone that can use it. FedEx shipping included anywhere in the 48 states in the continental US.
