Came into some shed antlers last week and have been wanting to try them on something. I decided to make a sidekick for my 9. The 9 came with a Remora in the sheath pocket but I needed something a little pointier and a little bigger. Got this Roach Belly for about $12. Butchered the poly handle off of it and stuck this piece of antler on it. Fits the pouch sheath perfectly with enough sticking out for a good grab. These things are hair popping sharp. Next attempt on a BK14 or tweeener I think

That's a nice looking combo, and handy too. Should cover you pretty good in the woods.
 
Very cool idea. I love antler and am really looking forward to seeing a Becker with some.
 
I love the look of that. Especially when the scales are pinned in place. When you have natural handles, i think the pins/rivets really class up the whole look.
 
Best looking mod of a non-Becker knife I've seen on this subforum today. :D

Seriously, very nice work. I always appreciate the vision & skill it takes to turn an average looking knife into a great looking knife. Thanks for posting the pics.
