    nice work there Cap'n

    I've not seen pierced horn like that before and I like it! You've certainly got talent that's for sure.

    I thought you sailor boys were meant to be into Scrimshaw? I saw your Badger sheath, do you do much of that?

    Indoorsout- About an hour from start t' finish...cut horn, draw silhouette, drillhole, cut out and polish. I recommend using a vacuum when cuttin' as the dust ain't good fer the chest....or the floor...or bookshelves etc...lmao.
    Dave- Tis the only one I've done...tis me 'Badger knife'....made from some scrap 4mm stainless I have loads of.
    The handle an' sheath came from an' old decking plank an' were grain matched t' flow...just split the sheath, gouged out the shape o' the blade an' stuck it back t'gether..lol....The 'Badger plate' on the sheath is carved antler, done wi' the knife an' sunk into the sheath.....then wet formed 'sofa' leathered t' finish...I do Carve antler alot when I have some as it is nice an' soft...but horn an' bone are a little harder t' 'carve, so I find other ways o' using it.
    Not done much skrim...Takes ages t' get right that!..lol
