I had it made for me, stag and wood handles were just too common for me, wanted something different so went with the whole whitetail theme. I will say without the stain I would not have been interested at all in a natural white jawbone handle. The coloring with the stain is like exhibition grade wood almost. The jawbone also kind of determined the thickness of the handle and I really like the thinner handle and the shape gives it some real character as you can see with the shape of the butt cap.
