Rossr Posted January 31, 2024 Report Posted January 31, 2024 I forged a blade and added an antler handle then carved a face in the antler. Decided to carve a similar face on the sheath. Thought u folks might like a look Ross Quote

Rossr Posted January 31, 2024 Author Report Posted January 31, 2024 I'm always amazed at how supportive this community is and helpful. Thank you! I think lile most makers I'm critical of my work and only see the problems or mistakes. So it's quite humbling to read comments other makers say about what I do. Most days I feel like I'm far away from quality work. Best Ross Quote
Members Cattleman Posted February 10, 2024 Members Report Posted February 10, 2024 You must either have incredible patients and some AMAZING lives to carve that deer antler... That stuff is nearly as hard as rock!!! But the entire build turned out beautiful!!!! Quote
Members WalterF Posted February 12, 2024 Members Report Posted February 12, 2024 Sweet job, it is a complete package. Quote
Members Hags Posted February 13, 2024 Members Report Posted February 13, 2024 Excellent. As my wife says, we look at our work from 6 inches with a very critical eye. No one else does. I'm sure that you, as well as the rest of learn from every project. Quote
