    i like handles on my tools. and i prefer to buy good used vintage or antique tools for lifetime use, they are for the most part better made than the Chinese copies. Japanese knives made in Japan being the exception, they make excellent steel. IMO.

    i have a new way for me, i use a large round punch either 1 " or 1 1/4" dont remember but i use very light pig suede and punch out a piece then glue it to the hoodicky, wrap the edges around so they are pinned underneath when its set. i like it much more than adding a chunk o plastic.

    Ive attached the pommels in different ways with screws or pins but i always replace that soft punk with good hard wood so it will hold. Its a tiger to get a through tang in some of the antlers with the bends in them without hogging out the whole antler. On full size knives i pin the tang also. Always trying to make them better. Thank you i really appreciate that!

    those are fine looking indeed!!
  21. chuck123wapati
    lol it would fit great in your back pocket and work great too for helping folks understand what your sayin.
  22. chuck123wapati
    good question i drilled out the soft part of the antler and glued in a wooden plug then silver soldered a wood screw to the endcap and screwed it on.
  23. chuck123wapati
    well thank you, on the tool i imagine it would this was actually my first time using it except for some practice and i got kind of lucky and the length of the stamping came out correct on the side so the pattern fit almost perfectly, across the top i could see it didn't fit so i just stopped after the hearts. i would love to say i planned that lol.
