    Yes the antler doesn't swell like wood and the phosphor bronze is self lubricating so it gives a consistent smooth action that you don't get wit a stock Opinel.

    That looks a nice clean weld for hand forged. Nice Job.

    Made this Customized Opinel No9 fitted to Scottish Red Stag antler tine handle over the last couple of days. Self lubricating Phosphor bronze contact plates for smooth action and durability. Polished blade and shaving sharp!

    Beautiful piece of work! As much art as knife!

    My lad (now 20, don't know where the years went) made this custom flipper for my anniversary. He has made a lot of fixed blades but this is his first folder so he has set a pretty high bench mark for himself! Blade is 01 tool steel with Stainless Liners and Oak scales

    Cracking re-build. Nice to see someone that doesn't mind putting the time in restore something that would otherwise be useless.

    I like the brass pommels, that is good idea.

    Great work. Nice to see a new face and some fresh enthusiasm on here. I love making Opinel antler mods and done a lot myself. Latterly i have been putting Phosfor bronze contact plates in at the pivot which gives them a nice smooth long lasting action.

    Nice job with the re-build. You put a lot of work into it. I found this sailor knife on the skip! Gave it a bit of a clean up and it is a nice piece of history wit the sailors name on it.

    Well i think my rat in the garage turned out to be mice but......it is flat packing them as fast as i can set it! Shows how effective this set-up is. The only way in to the bait is over the kill bar. It pretty much cuts them in half.

    That's a beast! Nice job.

    Bought some Victors a while back but never got round to modding them. Had a rat chewing up insulation in the garage this week so it gave me the incentive to get them done. Fitted a kill bar and a perspex spring spacer to the traps. Fixed them in a box with a couple of screws so they can pivot out to set them. Just set them so will see how i get on. Griff

    They are basically vinyl stickers. My brother in law did a bit of sign writing with his job. I made up the logo and he put it in his machine at work and cut out a bunch of them from scrap vinyl. Griff

    I've seen some deer farms in Scotland with sheds full of red deer antlers. It would be worth googling deer farms and contacting direct if you are wanting any quantity of them. I have a stocker i go by once a year and buy antlers work out about £5 per antler buying £100 worth. Deer farms about the same. Griff
