• Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! I hope that you all have something to be grateful for this year and for many years to come
  • America has reached 250 years, and I am grateful to be here, in the best country in the world. Thank every one of you who helps make this country a better place, those who have gone before and risked it all, and those who've paid the ultimate price to make the United States what we are today.

    Happy Birthday America! Let Freedom Ring for all time!

Upgrade a Bowie Handle

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.
