just desigen the next one with my buddy. slight upswept blade, double tempered and a small guard. thick main beam antler handle. going to be smaller and lighter then the bowie. not that i want to use a knife to disspatch animales but this one will be desigened with that in mind. i will also have a small folder made, that was a great idea!

"Pictures and memories are all I need."

That pretty much sums it up and now you will have a knife that will rekindle those memories more often.

Looking forward to seeing pictures what you end up with.

Ken that is what it's all about. If more folks got it, hunting would be in much better shape. Thanks!

I have lots of things I could say, but to be plain, I disagree with your decision.  However, its yours and I wish you good luck and hope regrets don't come along later.

That's a huge decision you have made, but on the other hand what better way to keep your memories alive than with a knife you will use often.

I would have a hard time doing this, but can say its a cool idea.  I'm guessing that a knife with these handles would bring a fair price at a future St Jude's fundraiser.  Just a thought.  Maybe there's a partnership that can happen.

So before this great rack becomes slabs, any thought to having that set of antlers cast so that reproductions could be made?

guess i should update this huh! after MANY pm's and emails i had changed my mind awhile ago. the King of the mountain now resides at a local wildlife muesum for all to see. this muesum has an awesome display of NY taken game and trophies so he is in good company. i got a life time pass to boot for letting the guy put him there.  :bigsmyl:

I'm glad you went with your second decision.  I don't think I could have done the first.
