Looking for Knifemaker to Make Traditional Folder with Antlers I Supply

[mhutch]

Hey all,
I hope this is the correct place to post this. Please forgive me if it isn't and I'll get it moved. I've got a couple antlers from a small whitetail deer I took this year, and they're too small to put up on the wall so I'm hoping a knifemaker might be able to make a knife for me using them for knife scales. They antlers are plenty long but the diameter is pretty small and there may not be a long enough straight section to get a longer scale out of. Probably less than an inch at the base. Not big enough for scales on a big fixed blade, but hopefully enough for scales on a small traditional folder.

Anyone have any suggestions on who I could talk to about doing this? I don't want to spend too much on this ordeal, definitely under $200, and I'd just like a good traditional style pocket knife for daily use.

Thanks,
Matt

Hi Matt,

It might be difficult to have a custom folder made in your price range. If you would consider using a factory knife then maybe I can make scales for you to fit it. Should be able to keep it within your budget pending on which knife you choose. Let me know if you are interested.

Thanks,

Ben
