I have had some strange requests over the years but this takes the cake

This guy brought this antler to me and asked if I could make a knife and leave the G1 on.
I'm going to add, his hand is bigger than mine by quite a bit.

That’s definitely strange! The blade and guard fit looks great!

That's interesting. Maybe it's so he can hang it from a hook or something.

Well, I'm at a loss for words.
I got the knife done and the sheath finished.
Delivered the knife to him and two days later he retired and I found out he has terminal cancer.
That blew my hat in the creek.
