I had this idea in my mind for a long time, and what i made out of such a rusty scrap gun is amazing. I improved my skills while making this project and it has not been so easy.
Here is my online store to buy the "Sunshine Bowie Knife" here:https://randomhands.net/product/sunshine-bowie-knife/
The forging part was challenging, i re-forged the billet again and again to minimize the ratio of impurities and delamination.
This is a kind of Winchester Bowie knife with a total length of 29cm.
length of guard = 56mm
Weight of Bowie = 295 grams
Steel type for bevel = Railroad (C85)
