Father & Son set
« on: August 08, 2007, 10:10:00 PM »
A guy in our archery club asked me to make a set of knives for him and his son. He asked that I have them done before the archery season opener. He gave me two shed antlers and asked that I make his for a left handed user and his son's for a right hander. I saved the brow tines for display bases. I still need to make the sheaths.

The blades are O1 steel heat treated and twice tempered to RC60

Ron -  That's about as nice as anything I've ever seen . . . totally outstanding.  That's also a great idea for a display stand. Really like the way you finished out the antler.
