Hand made crown stag bowie made by David North and Michael Prater in 1986. They worked together in the 1980s. I’m calling this blade carbon steel because I’ve seen a number of their 1980s blades that have carbon spotting when they weren’t cared for properly This blade shows some light cloudy areas (see photos) that could be old dried oil but is probably just some fade to the shine from 35 years of storage. All their knives were signed and dated using a vibra – tool. Clip point blade with false edge and a spine full of saw teeth. Hidden tang construction with a large soldered brass guard with brown, red, and white spacers. Large crown stag handle with two brass pins and no chips or cracks. Handful a big bowie from hard to find early knife making team. Sale to 50 states only. The item “Handmade Knife. North & Prater Crown Stag Bowie Unused.
