Outstanding.

Horn really smells when cut it, dont it! :)

Thanks guys!

This antler wasn't nearly as bad as grinding the buffalo horn for my first slipjoint...

stinky antler/horn, slow your grinder down and keep a mister running to prevent dust. You can pick up a nozzle for a "livestock" mister at the farm supply.

Thanks Sam...

Good ideas about the speed and mister. Unfortunately I am using a single speed grinder, so I'll have to rely on my dust mask/respirator...

Very nice work! I really like that slim profile and the grinds are looking good.
