    Instead of drilling and filling the antler to fit the tang you can boil the antler and push it into the tang it will both get the exact shape you need and the antler will act as a glue when it is hot

  • @jukeboxhero1649
    @jukeboxhero1649 3 роки тому

    Say, Ivan, you can boil an antler after a good 24 hour soak and it softens up and you can bend it straight . You clamp it in a vise or with clamps until it dries out. You don't have to use them bent. Keep it up

  • @trentszeponski3456
    @trentszeponski3456 4 роки тому +1

    Excellent craftsmanship on that knife Ivan and thank you for keeping it simple and to the point. It is rare to see anyone making a knife handle from antler, at least in my life. Good snug fit on that handle too.
    I can appreciate this since this knife I own has an antler handle that rolls on it when in the hand but does not fall apart, still a good knife minus the fitting of that handle.
    Have you tried the proper way to forging out your bevels? Angling you blade upon your anvil and the angle of your hammer swing to the same angle of the bevel you desire to form? How is you elbow and wrist? Do you use you shoulder muscles to lift and swing your hammer to your work and not your wrist or for-arm?
