Moose antler and O1 steel
A friend from Maine, sent me a small moose antler and asked that I make a knife for a friend of ours, using the antler.
I cut the handle from a section of the antler that provided a finger guard.
Then picked a blade form that matched the handle.
Then made an O1 steel blade with a little file work.
Then contoured the brass and added a some ink.
Next I made a sheath and freehanded in a moose antler image.
I used the tip of the antler as a display base.
