Re: From Bowie to Switchblade
I really like bowie style blades and would love to see a stiletto type knife with a bowie blade. I like your version above very much, especially with the guards, the only thing I would change is the bottom bolster, I think the knife would have a better appearance with a more traditional stiletto style bottom bolster.

Thanks for the suggestion, you do realize that I was trying to imitate a fixed blade primitive bowie, right?big_slim wrote:I really like bowie style blades and would love to see a stiletto type knife with a bowie blade.

I could do it any way you like, though. Another guy suggested a swingguard.

Right on.ILikeStilettos wrote:No, that was off the radar for a primitive style knife. However, that being said, it could certainly be designed as a swinger. What sort of guards would you like to see?Tendoncutter wrote:All interesting and smart renditions. Have you considered making it a swingguard?
Bat style, or rounded tips would probably be my personal preference
