both handles are made of moose antler.bowdoc

Those look real nice!

From the texture on it, thats a moose that was killed in velvet or died in velvet. I have a couple whitetail antlers that were in velvet, it dries and gives it a rough look and feel, very similar to that.

The Kid

Kid you are correct one anler was a shed and the other came off a bull killed in the velvet.It leaves those little grooves in the antler.Looks kind of neat that way...bd

Bowdoc,  Did you quit your day job...no more bows to refinish?  Or have you become a Knife-aholic    tippit
