Deer Horn Scales
« on: November 06, 2003, 11:48:32 AM »
I have just started to learn about making knives and thought I would start of slow by buying a few folding kits and puting deer horn scales on them.  Is this a good way to start making knives?  Will I need to do anything as far as a finish?

Folders are alittle hard to start with even the kits, but everybody starts somewhere.  Horn is expensive to start, but you can get scales from any knife supplier.  White tail is generally too thin.  Welcome to the game will help you if I can.  Ron  rdjamieson@aol.com
