Buffalo knife
« on: June 22, 2014, 07:33:04 pm »
Finished this point yesterday and just couldn't let it set on the bench.  Found an antler that had a buffalo head in it and went to work.  Kinda makes you wonder how many of these plains beasts were finished off with a similar point like this on the end of a spear.  also had an old piece of buff hide to wrap the transition on the handle where I quit carving.

Hank hasn't posted any of his fancy work yet.  This is his simple stuff.  He did a largemouth bass coming out of the base of an antler once...it had a tiny little Rapala in it's lip complete with treble hooks and the gills were carved so you could look through the mouth and out the backside!

Not too bad for a lefse bender!

Thanks for all the comments.   I use a dremmel on the antler and a clothes pin for my nose.  The knife is  going to a silent auction this weekend for American Heart Association  fundraiser.
