Post by: srtben on February 12, 2013, 06:49:00 PM

Here is a belt knife I just finished up. This one has elk antler on the handle, hand rubbed bevels, and textured flats. The pins are copper.
OAL is 8.25", with about a 4.25" blade.
Its hard to find nice big sections of elk antler, this was my last piece.

I like how your scales are evenly shaped and the texture is very similar from side to side.
