    Antler handle letter opener

    My business partner and I exchange gifts at Christmas but he is hard to buy for. If there is something he wants he already owns it - so I try to make something unusual. His wife told me he just remodeled his study/home office so I thought I'd make something for his desk. Disclaimer: I am neither a knifemaker or a leatherworker - I just make things up as I go along. I bought a letter opener blank from a knife supply and cut down the tang so it would fit in the shed antler base. I couldn't find a finger guard that looked like it would work so I drilled out a brass pommel.
