Title: Elk antler Bush knife
Post by: srtben on July 10, 2012, 11:17:00 PM
This is an order I just finished for a Trad gang member.
I used elk antler he supplied, and put it on an L6 blade.
The blade has filework and hammer textured flats.
He wanted rustic.
It will be getting a cross-draw sheath here in a few days.

Another nice one, Ben.  Can you get a pic of the file work?

As far as being rustic, it's barely rustic.  Looks like a precision instrument with a bit of character to me.   ;)

Thanks guys, I don't do many antler handles. I am pretty happy with how this one came out.
