    Sabatier Chef knife - Handle removed, will clean it up later today.



    Out of curiosity I cut some Sambar scales today to compare them to the red deer scales I had already cut.

    I can certainly see why knife makers prefer to use Sambar antler (these are just rough cut, not leveled/flattened yet).
