 Mike, heat treated it is real nice to work. But what is frustrating is it will be sooo perfect looking and there will be a hidden crack when you are almost finished.

Yeah brother, I wouldn't use it on an elk... but will make a cool gift for a friend of mine when i get a deer antler handle on it.. I made some points for hunting out of that same glass last year and they are surprisingly tough ... stuck one in a tree while turkey hunting, a housecat was out in the woods hunting too close to me..  >:D got some hair off him but he narrowly escaped :'( Hawk..
