I recently purchased a Big Bowie to upgrade the handle to a solid piece of Deer Antler. It was pretty straightforward . I cut down the Tang after removing the original handle slabs. I wanted a better looking and functioning handle more authentic than the synthetic handles out there. So I did it. Pictures are available. Made a real thick rugged leather sheath with fringe. Not bad for an old Mountain Man! I would be proud to carry it trappin' beaver or tradin' with the Native Americans in the Rockies!

I'd really love to see some pics and a little documentation of this... sounds great so far!
 
Do you upload your pics to an online storage site such as Photobucket? Probably more than one way to do this, but I upload mine to Photobucket, and then from there post them on this site.
