Knife handle
N.B. Never put antler directly between the jaws of the vice,
because of the danger of indentation of the antler.
Leather is a suitable shim between the jaws of the vice.
The leather will not only prevent indentation, but it also
provides a good friction grip on the antler.
There is also a rubber-faced magnetic shim that works well.
The weight of
this antler is
6,6 pounds.
All pieces to
the shaft, prepared
for assembeling.
