Stephan Fowler Petty 205mm.Stephan Fowler is an ABS Apprentice blade-smith and Vice President of the Georgia Knifemakers Guild. He has been making knives since 2004 and is now a full-time knifemaker. Working exclusively with High Carbon tool steels such as W2 and 1095 with Hamon or 52100. He works to ensure that every piece is both artistic and functional.
210mm edge 35mm tall at the heel
52100 with a forced Mustard Patina
D Shaped - Curly Maple Handle with Buffalo horn ferrule
I called and emailed Mark with a few questions about some of the knives he carries. He thought that I would be happy with the Fowler petty. Problem is that they sell out really quick. I called Stephan Fowler and worked out a custom petty with an ironwood handle. Mark set up the invoice and walked me through sharpening stones etc. The knife took longer than Stephan had predicted because when he was making my blade (as well as others) he was not happy with the batch of steel he had procured. All those man-hours and he scrapped them due to personal standards. That is what "Made in the USA" is supposed to mean. Now I know why they sell out so quickly. The knife is amazing!!
