Here is one I made for a young friend in Colorado, Owen. He sent some horn he found and his old man (hornhunter) gave me some elk antler. They came together ok I think.
Thanks again to Dave Ricke for the help.

Very nice as always. Ran into these antlers at John McDonalds a few days ago that I understand came from you. Were they the ones in
question?

How is that for a bow trade?

Very nice! I'm kinda partial to smaller knives. I get to use them more cause I never kill anything when I go hunting!

Beautiful knife, I think I can feel some Ricke influence there.

Going up to Dave Ricke's @ 10am Wednesday to shape the handle on the new takedown recurve he made for me. Stop in at the shop Brian.

Beautiful knife, I'd say they came together very well.

That looks like a worthy knife for a beautiful set of antlers. I bet it makes more than one though. :D

Bigriver · « **Reply #16 on:** April 03, 2013, 08:04:00 PM »

Thanks for the kind words about the knife.

Just for clarification, the horns were traded to John McDonald(Bigriver Bows) for a bow. The horntraders(Hornhunter aka Scott George) son sent me some sheep horn he found & I made him the knife cause I like him.

He is a great kid & one hell of a hunter already.

My knives are certainly not worthy of a set of antlers like that (or any others for that matter)

Brian, I love the knife. It looks like a perfect size and shape for deer hunting. Nice Job,

I love Johns expression looking at the elk antler.

Very nice job on the knife Brian, I bet it will get many years of use and will become a prize possession. Still would like to meet you some day
I saw the elk at Johns, Good Trade. He is proud of the elk, you made him very happy.
