    Fantastic. This is what I think of when I think of a Bowie knife (Boe-ie knife as I'm Australian). Great chopper, great cutter, light and nimble, super edge, ductile spine with durable edge (think Japanese katana). A simple, high carbon steel, time tested and not needing a college degree and $2000 of specialised equipment to sharpen. A convex edge which even a child can learn to maintain. Excellent.

      @@darylbrenton4839 Yeah I really love this one, it was a special bowie for use. Used some curly maple from the same cut as the Accipiter, which is why it’s so stunning. The guy who got this blade went through the pelvis of a deer and went on to skin the whole thing! I was amazed! But yes you’re exactly right it has that dual hardness quality to it that a katana is supposed to have. Thanks for the comment!

      I watched this video again, I like this knife so much. It rivals the Accipiter. Did you want suggestions for a name? How about the Pencil Sharpener? It was the example you used in the video. I found that ironic. Seriously, what about Aquila - Latin for eagle? Our only member of this genus is the Aquila audux, The Wedgetail Eagle, comparable to your Bald Eagle.

      @@darylbrenton4839 Oh I like that name and had no idea that Aquila was latin for Eagle. I only know the name from the end of Romans where Paul greets Prisca and Aquila (who apparently risked their necks for his life). I will very likely utilize that in the future, thank you!

      @@MarsFireForge Amazing animals, the Wedgetail. They have been seen diving down on a mob (collective noun) of kangaroos and grabbing a full grown male by the head, and giving it a quick crunch with its talons. A large male roo can be around the weight of an adult human. Several days worth of food right there. We have them here and I've seen several. Its a privilege.
