A rough sequence of what i've been up to lately... a scramaseax, a chefs knife, and a hunter.

Amen Tai...:) 'For by one offering He has perfected for all time those who are sanctified' Heb.10:14

I would be reluctant to use antler that fresh, particularly slabs, as there may be a good chance of them warping. I have no real experience with moose antler though. With whitetail antlers I like to let them set in a dry place for about a year before using them, but it is possible I am being...

Mine came in a plastic bucket (and still is).... as long as it has a good seal on the top it should be fine.

I was on that for awhile, until the great hard-drive crash of 97....
