Steve, I did grind it off, and the antler, to fit the knife, it was a big antler, I could not find another one is the reason for the grinding. I stained it with leather die. I like scrimshaw, maybe the next one will be on the side.
Thanks for the nice words
Dana
:thumbsup:
Thats really nice Dana,I like everthing about it!
Way nice!!
Dana, the reason I asked is I thought I could see where the tine was. I have been meaning to try that, It turned out well. I actually like how it looks! Nice.
