Title: TX POST OAK AND ANTLER
Post by: sticshooter on March 27, 2011, 10:19:00 PM

WELL THIS ONE I REALLY LIKE ALOT. ITS BEEN ABOUT 3 YEARS SINCE I DID THIS KIND OF ANTLER BOLSTER. THIS IS A SKINNER/CAMP KNIFE. BLADE IS GERMAN SAWSTEEL AND 5" OAL 10.25". THOUGHT A FEW MIGHT LIKE TO SEE THIS ONE.<><

I like the shape of that one and the antler used that way.

Very nice! I've seen natural burl edges on wood used but not antler. Awesome idea!

I think this is one of my favorites that you have made. Absolutely a work of art, and I'm sure if need be a real worker too. Great Knife!!!

Frank,

That knife is exceptionally beautiful. You have created something very special with this one. I love it. It is a bigger knife than what I would ordinarily use in the field, but it is wonderful to see your imagination come to life.
