Made a bowie for a friend. 1095 steel. Blade about 8.5 inches. Brass guard. Oosik handle (walrus penis bone, for anyone unenlightened ), and an 1836 (year of the Battle of the Alamo) penny on the butt. The penny already had a hole in it, perfect for my needs.
I'm a rank amateur at making knives, but he was happy.
