I know many hunters and I even have a guy that said he would give me some antler from whitetail deer but I don't know if it could be used for handle material. Does it have to be stabilized? Do I need to do anything to it to prep it? Does it just need to be dried out for a long time? Is it even worth fooling with? Can it be sent on to a wood stabilizer company?
I just want to find out if it is worth fooling with before I ask the guy to bring me a load of antler.
I did search for this but wasn't finding anything. I saw another knife maker used some on a knife but I don't know anything else past that.
Thanks
