Here are a couple interesting blades made by a buddy of mine. He made the Wakizashi for me in trade for making a bunch of sheaths for him.
The ugly Brute is his latest odd ball creation that I may try to talk him out of. He asked for a Scout Rig for it to finish the pay off of the Waki. It's truly an ugly, massive hunk of steel, but it's got some real character.

The Bowie thread made me think of this very nice forged blade in my collection...

And a smaller Bowie inspired fixed blade by Ray Laconico:
