Put a handle on it

Well I was looking long and hard at a nice spike horn antler. In the end I decided to use a piece of cholla that Jeb gave me. Thanks Jeb. It had a little knob of a branch coming off and I toyed with putting two buttons on. I decided to cut through the Y and make a larger oval shaped button. For my button I used Mulberry and Black Walnut. I glued it on with a little JB weld. Not very Primitive but effective. I filed and sanded cholla down to fit my grip good and halvted blade on with pine pitch. Wiped on a English Walnut and a couple coats of tru oil.
I think it turned out 👌
