Thank you all for watching! Please remember to also watch the other challenge-videos and vorte for the best knife here: forms.gle/Wnme5w9BDVkC7qW2A
Knife looks amazing. Congratulations. Well done.
why didnt you enter the challenge , you would've been great!
Thank you :) Always great to get positive feedback from you
@@Nanoaiello Because to this day I don't have a shop. I bought a house and currently settling down.
@@SLAVIKTELY oh thats a shame , but i'm glad you got a house!
@@SLAVIKTELY maybe do some vlogs how you set up your new place 😊
It's beautiful! Do I see some Kyle Royer influence here? 👍🏻 Great job!
Thank you :D I definitely watched some of his videos in the past, I think he makes the best bowies out there.
@@rvdKnives I totally agree! We asked him to participate but he declined. 🤷♂️
@@TyrellKnifeworks hmm ok...speaking for me, I think he's miles ahead on terms of perfection and quality
Dude that knife came out awesome! Beautiful work!
Thank you! I like yours too!
Your bowie is beautiful, I already made one similar. Congratulations.
I love that the blade is sharpened all the way to the heel. Nice work. 👍🏼
It's nice to see a normal sized knife for once. Good work!
Just finished watching all the videos. RvD gets my vote. Best knife built with basic tools!!
Thank you very much!
A little bit of Kyle Royer - all I need... :)
Super sweet build! Loved the guard and fittings! That damascus bar sounded like it was still hardened when you started grinding on it! Makes for a tough build bro
Beautiful design Suitable for soldiers to carry for fighting.
Now That's a knife!
knoife* 🙂
UNFORTUNETLY I did not get to vote for your Bowie, but it is definitely the NICEST of the 18 Bowies if that is any consolation !!!
Thank you very much ;) 🥳
Nice job love the green handle. Thanks for sharing 👍.
Hey man I'm so impressed how you make it with the minimum of tools and you did a beautiful knife 🔪 nice job buddy blessings 🙌 🙏 👏
Almost like an Arkansas Toothpick!
Cool job, man!
What a good knife! Nice.
Wie immer - astrein! Dir zuzusehen ist wie meditieren. Und ich möchte nicht wissen, wie viele Stunden Arbeit darin stecken. Mach weiter so! Danke!
Vielen Dank :) 👍 Freut mich, dasses Dir gefällt!
War übrigens kürzlich ein erstes mal an nem LR Event mit meiner Tikka ;) War super cool
Beautiful and good luck in the comp!!!!!!
Enjoyed the video and I gave it a Thumbs Up
Thank you!
@@rvdKnives You're welcome!!
Looks really great. Still more to watch but strong contender
Thank you :)
So much work on that one little handle bolster. (I think that is what to call it?) I love that element.
This knife was on the short list to win, but others made their own billet, so I had to cut this one. Still one of my favorites, though, great job.
Beautiful Bowie knife !
🤩👌👏👍
Sweet!! Great materials choice! And very nice classic guard design 👍Also, we used the same exact method to add details to the spacers! Cheers!! 🍻
Thank you! Yeah, I think we even used exactly the same tool 😅
Nice detail, great end result.
100% pure awesomeness
just one word comes to mind .....Beautifull!
Absolutely beautiful
niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice, enjoyed the vid as well, an voted for yours, good luck
Amazing craftsmanship and skills 👍🏾💯. Super elegant too. I want one!
awesome work! but the handle is not finished, it's square as block..
This is really beautiful knife !
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.
What material is the handle? Is it a wood burl? It just looked really hard made me wonder if it was a fossilized material. Beautiful blade sir
Thank you! Yes, its stabilized wood burl.
I've seen a few of these challenges last couple of days and as of now you have my vote what a beauty definitely learning working on blade #5 next one I would like to tackle a Bowie from some spring steel I have, maybe one day Ill enter a challenge like this
Thank you! Good luck with your knifes. Just keep at it :)
Such a beautiful blade! I love your attention to detail.
Absolutely amazing
That’s incredible - you are a master crafter, well done 👍👏
Thank you :D
Wow juz wow!!!!!
Beautiful knife, the handle looks amazing as does the pattern in the blade 👍 Regards from Down Under
Well done thanks for sharing it with us all
Great craftsmanship and attention to detail
Absolutely amazing Bowie 😍👏👏

Огонь 🔥🔥🔥
Ein, ziemlich geiles Teil!
Danke dir :)
不能推荐一下锉刀BU
Nice
I can see similarity to Kyle Royer "The Take-Down Bowie Knife Online Course" knife, but The handle you made is much more cool than his! Fantastic job Man! Knife looks amazing (big thumbs up anf +1 Sub from me! ) Regards, David
Thank you. Yea, I might be influenced a bit by him. However, his qualitiy is on another level
@@rvdKnives He is an elite, but You made fantastic job either
You didn't make a knife you just cut it out of steel,I haven't seen but 2 knives made in this challenge!
Then next time you cut something, just go ahead and use a raw bar of steel ;)
Ferric cloride is very bad for environment, and should not be dropped in the sink :-/
I did not drop it in the sink...😖
@@rvdKnives Waste of good coffee though... a bit of milk, a little sugar and a few seconds in the microwave - would've been fine!
@@ianbrown_777 Haha :D True, bit it would have been very very strong
👏👏👏👏
