It needs some leather liners at each end of the bone to fill in the gaps .

[@alexzorro8884]

I was thinking of you while hunting knives at the local fleamarket today. Picked up some nice u.s. stuff for like $2 a piece. like boker, kabar mk2 , imperial, kingston ,ric-nor? Pal, and the exact same rh- 71 remington /dupont with the bone dragon grip. Yours was on backwards . I was trying to find out if that grip was factory option ."my grip had better detail" and your video came up...figures..lol

Nice work

[@theknifedoctor]

Thank you and Thanks for watching!

[@rasputinscastle]

Awesome 😊

[@homeofinventions]

Why not sharpen after the work is complete? Safety?

[@bluetoad2001]

you need some spacers between the antler and the bolsters

[@lukevandermark71]

Hey bud, it does look good, but you should glue the shaft in the horn.. epoxy

[@theknifedoctor]

I might try that!! Thanks!

[@julianreast5425]

Great job mate! Cringed a bit when you got them pliers out though!

[@theknifedoctor]

Thank you!! LOL

[@UpstateNYbladecollector]

I can smell that antler through my phone 🤣 man they stink when you cut and grind them

[@theknifedoctor]

Yeah…it’s terrible. I can say though. The mask I was wearing kept me from smelling it. Now when I took it off, the smell was in my shop hours after I cut it.

[@lukevandermark71]

Not trying to tell a fallar what to do.. but I've done it and seen my pap do it. Blade will never move

[@christopherscott2011]

I have a Remington Rh 71 with a carved Inuit style handle and can't find out anything about it would appreciate any help anyone could give

[@goobergriffith8489]

Antlers are bone they have marrow inside of them I just seen where some one commented antlers not bone how crazy. If it suits you suits me lol

[@theknifedoctor]

LOL. Yeah, I just do me and let them do them. Thanks for watching!! 😉

[@sandralth]

Wearing a mask is a good idea,when working with antler.

[@kennethclark-qm6vo]

Antler not bone, great job however.

[@thegarbagefly]

Bone does stink😂

[@jodycopeland1]

Yes those antlers stink when cutting and really bad when sanding or grinding
