Thank you!
I'm curious, as a knife maker do you mostly source your antler direct from deer farmers in the US or do you import most?

I'm curious because I'm currently working through the process of sending a set of antlers to a gentleman in MT from here in Australia. APHIS up to now haven't been willing to give clear instructions on the process.

I use elk sheds sourced locally here in California. Lot of folks don't realize it but we have quite a few elk here. I trade with cowboys from all over the area. They find them while out working and know I'm interested. Calif law does require me to use sheds so thats what I do.

Tule Elk knives! Now that is a rare treat.

I’m building points to hunt elk in WY, but Tule is something else.
 
That is a beauty where they did the Stag right to the bolsters . I am also sad that I was too late to the party to get that model . Merry Christmas my friend .

Thanks Harey, those Lil Indian Girl canoe's are pretty neat and this one came due to a gift certificate from our friend Campbellclanman Campbellclanman (Duncan) :) Like you said, I too like how the Stag runs into the bolsters.

Now onto those two beauties you posted...LOOK at that 47!!! then moving onto that fantastic Sheffield Pruner, absolutely Stunning:oops::thumbsup:
