Howdy folks!

I have for sale this nice little coffin handle bowie that I made. It has a 7-1/4" blade made from 3/16" thick 1080 high carbon steel with a flat grind profile. The handle is figured maple with steel rivets and brass accent pins. Overall length is 12" and it is solid and feels great in the hand. Everything has been given an antique finish. It comes with a premium oak tanned leather sheath. Asking $325 USD via PayPal preferably, but will entertain other payment options. Shipping is included to Canada and the US.

Thanks for looking!

Randy

Wow! What temperature do you heat it to so as to achieve the right quench speed?
120°F canola oil works really good for the steels I use...1075, 1080, or 1084.. Steels with higher carbon content like 1095, you'd want to use a commercial fast speed quenchant like Parks 50. My quench tank looks the same right now, lol.

Runewolf I was kidding D.Summers about his bourbon! I also use canola. Mostly forging 1080, 1084, leaf spring and recently added 80CRV2. It’s hard to want to work in the forge when the quench oil is solid!!

I use one of those electric pancake griddles, set my quench tank on there and it heats up the oil nicely.

I completely missed that you were responding to D Summers there, sorry.😂
