Knife making in super slow motion

Must have started working on this knife at least a month ago. Been trying to get back into making and its taking me forever now. This started out as an old tiller tine that had been given to me while doing a local show. Best as I can tell its O-1. Its got a 5" blade, overall its just under a foot long. I believe the piece of antler is whitetail.

That is awesome.

Is it a full tang knife?

Or did you just attach the loop to the butt?

Either way, that is a "gnarly" piece of antler and was quite a job to make a knife out of it.

The tang goes all the way through the stag handle. The thing the loop is in works the same way as a nut.
 
Ray. Its always great to see your work. Your style is so unique and your sheaths are just amazing. Thanks for sharing.
 
Thanks for the comments!

Here's the photo of the other knife I had been working on along with the previous knife.
