Im not very good, but here are a few knives
« on: June 14, 2009, 11:02:03 pm »
As the title states I am NO where near a good knapper, but I do like to try. These are my first 2 knifes that I have done, the big one is a osage handle. The smaller one is a replic deer tine cast that i made the color is way off but I tryin to get the color down. The bladed browtine and shed base are also replic antlers that I am working on, I think i have fidgured out some of the color but not quite perfect.

Ain't nothing wrong with those.
  Wouldn't it be less trouble to just use real antler?
Be thankfull for all you have, because no matter how bad you think it is...it can always be worse.

Hey, Guys thanks for the compliments. I don't have enough sheds to cut off of around here so I have had to resort to making molds. This way I can borrow other peoples antlers and mold them as well.
Open to any advice or sugestions.
Thanks
