Hand forged knife,installing antler handle

[@eddiestephens868]

Thanks Chad. I just asked for this not long ago and that is what I call quick response. Kind of knew but was unsure about the hole for the tang.

[@chuckbowie5833]

Thanks for the video. Impressive to hand drill the hole into such a skinny antler. Cheers

I,ve heard you could straighten antlers by boiling them in water. Have you ever done this or heard that?

[@oldsouthforge831]

I have done it a few times. Also I have soaked them in white vinegar. It’s hit or miss either way. Sometimes they will break while straightening them
