Elk Horn Hunter

TJ Smith · Dec 16, 2002

This one came out pretty good. What do you think?

8 3/4 overall
4 1/4 blade
1084 steel stock removal
Someone on the forum asked about super glue finish on an elk horn.
I said naaa that won't work.
My apoligies worked very nice. This is the fourth one I have finished with super glue and they all came out nice

looks great! whats the spacer made of?

did you just dilute the super glue and spray it on? paint it? it doenst chip off?

TJ Smith · Dec 16, 2002

Sorry the spacer is raspberry diamond wood. I cut off a finger of a vynil rubber glove and use the super glue right out of the bottle.
Super glue doesn't stick to vynil.
i use loctite super glue

Very Nice looking Knife.Dymond wood and pakkawood make some nice spacer material in my opinion.About the only use I have found for the stuff myself.

Thank you thank you.
I like it when a knife turns out some where close to what you saw to start with.
Getting to where I like working with horn more than wood.
Thanks for all the kind comments.
Everybody have a MERRY CHRISTMAS

Real nice work. I like hunters and you seem to have nailed that one. The over all curvature looks good. Thanks for sharing.

Super glue huh.
