Bro your a genius. I've wanted to make a knife like this for a while but never could figure out how to screw it together. You riveting some all-thread onto the tang is a stroke of genius. Can't wait to give it a shot...thank you thank you for that idea, I'm so excited now to try.
Thanks, I appreciate you watching, I got the idea from ABS Master Smith J. Neilson, he demonstrated how to do it on his tips and tricks video, it makes working with through tangs so much easier.
A thumbs up and a new subscriber. The more traditional Bowie knife was what I was looking for and you built it. I’m a big fan of antler scales. That blade is so sexy. Great build brother. You got my vote !
Thanks man! Welcome aboard! I am a huge fan of traditional Bowie's as well, I'm hoping to do more Bowie builds in the future, a D guard is calling my name, I'm looking for that perfect piece of antler to make it happen. I appreciate you watching!
Thanks man! That's a little technique I learned from J. Neilson and Harvey Dean, it makes it where everything will almost auto align itself when tightening it up, once you put the epoxy in the handle it's rock solid. I appreciate you watching!
You know, Black Beard Projects is my boy. That's how I found out about this competition. But my friend, you nailed this. NO ONE else used a bone handle that I saw. You have my vote and you've got a new subscriber.
Sorry, but that's not bone, it is antler. However, it is still superbly done IMO. Brackin Blades Forge used a real cow bone. th-cam.com/video/QcCcKwzVdnc/w-d-xo.html
So far this is the best knife I've seen. There was Damascus that went overboard on the pattern. But, the beauty with yours is its simplicity. Good Lord it is gorgeous. 👍🏻
@@Mysticmountainforge Wished I had kept better track of time and could have voted for you. Not to knock the others, but there were so many that went over and above with "glitter." You truly did create an heirloom blade. Appreciate your time and video. New subscriber. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
After watching all 18 videos and agonizing over my top three choices, yours is the top bowie in my opinion! You got my vote for this beautifully crafted classic bowie. There are so many amazing knives in this challenge. It made it hard to pick just one.
Who doesn't appreciate antler handles on their Bowie! Yes, please! I really like the overall shape and size of the knife, and the color of the guard and cap. This one gets my vote!
That’s a beautiful build. I’m impressed, I was wondering how is he going to affix the screw to the half tang? Ingenious! That way of doing it would have Never crossed my mind wow it’s a very simple and easy way to fit the handle to the tang while over coming the problem of fitting a curved half tang to a curved Antler handle. Sir you are a Gentleman and a Scholar.Thanks for the upload🔥
@@Mysticmountainforge hi. Just saying it how it is. Have watched most of the other makers but your knife is how I would want mine to look . Beautiful work
The build was awesome subbed and shared and you got my vote. Damascus wasn't over done for shock and awe all.in all a solid build in my humble opinion. Going to check out the rest of your stuff hope you keep making great knives.
Watchind all these vidéos was a nice experience and has allowed us to discover new knives makers. Finaly our vote is for your knive, not because it's the most beautifull, not because it has a special look, not because it is the one I want to have but because it's the one I want to use ( my husband says ). San mai forging was an interesting challenge and must provide the blade good cutting ability, resistance and flexibility, the material choice for the handle is in perfect adequation with the " Bowie " spirit : good job and thumbs up ( sorry for bad english, loves from Belgium )
Thank you for the kind words, they motivate me to get back into the workshop and get to work, I needed this after the past week I have had battling Covid, thanks again and I appreciate you watching!
I finally decided to cast my vote. It took so long, and I know it's only one vote, and it won't make much of a difference, but I wanted to vote for MY fave Bowie. The last challenge was simple to vote on. Tyrel Knifeworks' knife was significantly superior to the others. But this time, there are many excellent knives, but Mystic Mountain Forge gets my choice because of the sensations the knife evoked in me. (sorry for poor English)
Yep, I talk about how I built it on another video here on the channel, I made this one where it was easy to convert back into a splitter as needed. Thanks for watching, I appreciate it!
I subbed and wanted you to know that is the closest knife to a original bowie and I voted for you to win... Sorry you didn't but still beautiful knife and good luck on the next challenge.
Hey Guys; going to post this in all the videos. Have to say lived these builds & was a HARD choice since we only get 1 vote. Would be better to have a 1, 2, and 3 choices since many channels have fewer subs but did great builds. That way there could be a bit more of an average top choices & determination of top 5 kind of challenge. @Tyrell Knifeworks got my vote but @Green Beetle, @Red Bears Ops, @Wengels Workshop were all right there at great builds for a 2 or 3 place fight.
Thanks! I appreciate you watching, I don't remember on this bandsaw blade but I will look and see if I can find the box but I believe it was a 24tpi I bought at home Depot.
Beautiful job, well done. I am just getting in to forging myself now. Just wondering about the design of the knife. Is there a pattern available for the shape you made. I would love (Try) to make this one, exactly. It is definitely the best of them all. It gets my vote. Thank you for sharing and good luck,
Thanks for watching, I appreciate it! I free hand all of my templates on graph paper, when I get over covid and get back out to my forge I will go through my stuff and find the template and we can figure out how to get it to you,maybe via email or something.

I love this Bowie! You have my vote bro! Seriously well done, classic, sleek, and perfectly flowy
Thanks man, I greatly appreciate it! I had an awesome time doing this challenge!
Make a offer ??!
Your bowie builds are the best. They look real. Not too over the top, well made and clean lines.
Awesome! Great way of connecting tang and threads! Lovely build. And Also great choice of thumbnail! Really pops to my eyes! Huge like!
Thanks man! I greatly appreciate you watching and your feedback! Love your channel and loved your Bowie!
There are many forms a Bowie knife can take but this is what the definition of one should look like. Classic and Beautiful.
Thanks! I appreciate you watching!
Very nice job. Turned out very well there keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work my friend. Forge on. God bless.
Thanks! I appreciate you watching!
Amazing knife and much truer to the form than many in the competition. Looks like a knife built to work, not just grace a display case. Well done.
I absolutely love the profile! The band on the blade is so pronounced, great job!!
Thanks man!

Man you are a genius 👍 I'm in the middle of making my first through Tang and I would have never thought to do that pivot. thanks a lot
That's a trick I learned from ABS master Smith J.Neilson, it works great to help everything align well. I appreciate you watching!

@@Mysticmountainforge I can’t wait. The first knife I ever made had antler scales. Stay bladed brother.

Me too, quite inventive!

Beautiful san mai bowie knife. Handle fitting is cool. Nice build Matt👍👍🔥🔥🔥
Thanks! I appreciate you watching!
loved how you ingeniously build that through tang construction. I now have a new project in mind!! loved this!!

Riveting that all-thread to the tang is genius! Takes out the guess work for the angle through the elk horn!
Thanks for watching! It's a trick I learned from ABS mastersmith J. Neilson, once you put the epoxy in it makes for a rock solid setup.
Very nice blade..love it..handle is great much respect for that...great video...respect from Croatia...
Very nice work as far as a traditional Bowie goes you have the best
Thanks! I appreciate you watching!
I really loved it when it was all done ... Kudos !!!
I appreciate you watching!
this knife is one of the best in this challenge. I loved the mechanical connection of the handle. amazing.
Thanks! I appreciate you watching!
Hot damn man!! Not done watching all the other Bowie's yet but so far you're in the lead!
Thanks! I appreciate you watching!
Right on man!! That’s a beautiful blade! Love the pattern and stag handle! I can tell that was made in Alaska!!!!🔥⚒💪🏻
Thanks man! The local antler store came through in the clutch for me, the antler was the third option, I'm glad I went with it!
You have my Vote Mystic Mountain Forge! GREAT JOB!
Thanks! I appreciate you watching!
I have no idea what a Go Mai recurve knife is all I know I really like your entry in the competition. Nice shape, handle and blade. Well done sir.
This knife comes together so nice. The handle and blade are a perfect match. Great job Matt!
Thanks! I appreciate you watching!
Great to see you posting vids again brother.
God Bless
Thank you for watching!
I did and for you. I would call that the Red River Bowie. The rivier pattern is beautiful.
Oooo that's purdy. Beautiful job!!
Nice one man. Low layer is very cool. My preference.

Dude is that a rigged up log splitter? Lol that’s amazing. Great work
Yes it is! I had to find a way to keep it as a functioning log splitter to use on wood for the winter. I appreciate you watching!
Very cool design. Thanks
Thanks! I appreciate you watching!
I just voted for you! Fantastic work man!
Thanks! I appreciate you watching!
Very nice really like the patten on the blade But I think the handle wins on this one . :)
I was really happy with how the handle turned out as well. I appreciate you watching!
You go my vote, I really like the profile and build of this bowie!
Most ingenious use of hydraulic (wood splitter?) as a forging press.
Just commented the exact same thing. Love it

Do you make 9 in thousand fold Damascus Bowie with full tang that's outdoors ready? Good Presentation ☝️😎
Clean, classic shape. Love the deer antler handle. What metal cutting blade & tooth count do you use for cutting? Thank
