  • Knife / Wayne & Tamara Handle

    Wayne and Tamara worked together to make an antler handle for me. All I did to the handle was scrub it in a sand pile to give it some highlights. Thanks again Wayne and Tamara. I knapped a Texas Root Beer blade and hafted it with Pine Pitch Glue and Rawhide.

            Looking good Ron !! I like the idea of rubbing it in sand it was a bit dark . How did you do that ? I’ll try it

              Thanks Tamara, I just scrubbed it on the sand. That wears the color off the high spots and makes it look more natural.

                I decided to stain the rawhide and I like it better stained:

                    Hey Tamara, That black sand should be very good at sanding things down.

                  That root beer goes well with the amber/pine tint on that antler.

                  aethetically pleasing, as they say. Excellent work, just awesome...as usual.
