Jim Siska One-of-a-kind Carved Bowie Knife "Gunfighter & The Saloon Girl" Woolly Mammoth Scales Handle 1996 Production

Description:
Jim Siska: One-of-a-kind spectacular Bowie knife by the late Master Smith, "Gunfighter & The Saloon Girl" theme masterfully carved by Paul G. Grussenmeyer as a unique piece never to be reproduced. Grussenmeyer spent over 600 hours in carving this masterpiece, as it is by far the most intricate, complex, most expensive and stunning carving he has ever undertaken to date on a knife. It represents a double-sided carvings done in a rare pattern. This Bowie bears an 8"  hand rub satin finished blade by 1-1/2" in width and it is a full tang constructed model, while the latter has been adorned with a delicate and light "hammering" motif all-around which adds a touch of elegance to an already beautiful knife. Original leather scabbard comes with the knife. Sold "AS IS."  All sales are final..No return, no exchange.. The most expensive carving ever done by Grussenmeyer was done on a Don Fogg katana whose weapon sold over $15,000.00 several decades ago. Free USPS shipping with insurance, tracking # and signature required. I do not engage in any type of trade. Thank you for looking.  The complexity, extreme rarity of the unique carving is fully detailed and explained in the caption over a two-page spread in the book about Paul G. GRussenmeyer which is included in the sale, see photo # 12.. Note: The carved cowboy figure is only for display purposes and does not comes with the knife.
