Congratulations on getting your knife in the Arkansas knife Museum it's a work of art and to have in such a grand host of other historic knife blades is a true test of your work.
What a handsome knife you created. Even though it takes cues from a modern minamilist design aesthetic, it would not have looked out of place on the frontier many years ago. I just discovered your channel and am excited to explore your videos and learn more about you and your work. Three hundred years from now people will still cherish and appreciate your blade, a timeless piece. Great work, you nailed it, congratulations!
Thanks! You would probably like it. Do it sometime when you can schedule a shop visit with some of the central AR makers and you would be bound to have a good time.
Enjoyed this! Congratulations on having your knife displayed in the museum. I am sorry I missed this, my son graduated from Pharmacy School there. You think in 4 years I could have visited!
Very cool and congrats, your knife is definitely in great company between Jim Crowell and Kevin Cashen! I really wish you showed some more of the blades there. I'd simply go myself, but I'm up in the Puget Sound 👎 lol. I'm gonna have to go look up that tanto under your blade that Kevin made, looks like there's a lot of neat things going on there. Great vid!
Thanks for watching and commenting! I was trying to give an overall impression of the exhibit without showing all of the goods. I am sure that you would enjoy it if you were a little closer.
Congrats on having a knife on display in the museum Allen! I'm still enjoying my Pocket Cutlass. I've even thought about cutting something with it. Nah.
yeah understandable, by the way, I'm just getting started in knife making, and I hope to some day make master smith in the ABS, do you have any pointers for me while I'm starting now? I want to try to find an ABS school back in the Philadelphia area if possible.
There are a couple of ABS schools in the eastern US. Take a look at www.americanbladesmith.com/ and click on the schools link at the top of the page for a list of schools.
That’s so awesome brother. Hard work really paid off. I would be honored to own one of your Bowie knives 🔪. If you are still making knives I would love to have contact information. Stay safe my friend. Job well done 👍 indeed
Congratulations on getting one of your knifes in there and imo on Bowie no.1 I don't think it matters much if it was actually the Bowie that Jim Bowie used what matters is the symbolism behind the knife and what it stands for
@@AllenNewberry unfortunately no we do not have any of his knives it would be great if we did I would definitely put it in a case and put it on display and a curio cabinet or something like that
those larger longer thicker heavier bowies, i wouldn't want to have to defend myself with one of those i would rather have something 8-9 inches maybe an inch and a half wide a small in front tapering up handle plain wood nothing spectacular. i mean if you're gonna use it for making someone or something bleed why would you buy a 600. dollar knife with sterling and ivory inlays just to permanently stain the materials? i have a world war 2 parang from luzon island in the philipenes that is 9 inches long has that exact tapering handle made of horn and brass and it might barely weigh a pound and a half. also whoever used to own it scratched the name jim bowie into the handle. i have had it bought from a pawn shop here in new england since february of this year and don't plan on getting rid of it unless what the guy at filipino weapons and martial arts.com told me was correct and might be a lot older than world war 2. i told him about the name scratched into it he said i should have the name checked
Its pronounced Booey not Bowey! You included a picture of the great Jim Bowie, a Texas hero and one of the greatest founding fathers of Texas. I dont understand how lnife people from other states can mispronunce a huge historical figures name so often. Its disrespectful and I guarantee it doesnt happen in Texas. We learn that name early in school. Anyways, great video and content otherwise. I just wish people could get that right because its really annoying that people assume its named after a musician.
How cool is that!
Very cool.
Very interesting!
good job!
COOOOOOOL! VERY GOOD VIDEO - BRAVO! THE KNIFE YOU MADE IS GREAT, IT DESERVE IT 'S PLACE THERE!
Thanks!

Very cool 😎. Im a Newberry too ;)
Always good to find more Newberry’s.
Very nice Allen, what an honor! I've never been to this museum, but I think a road trip is in order now.

Large knives are practical for both tool and weapon application.
Beautiful knife you made.
Thanks!

Sorry I missed this.
Thank you for the kind words. Here is my email: newberry@newberryknives.com
Do you have any info about the Johnny Fry 1860 First Rider West knife?
I do not.
Any Italian autos ?great video. Please let me know.
I haven’t done any. But, they are cool.
Does the clip point on the end of a Bowie serve any purpose or is it merely cosmetic
It can lighten the knife as well as make it stabbier and slicier. It can also allow the back side to cut and looks good as well.
nice one! ;)
Burke frags Thanks!

Thanks! Bowie no. 1 is definitely an iconic knife.
I'm James black 5th generation granddaughter
Cool! Got any old knives hiding in the closet?
