Guys,
Recently completed this hand carved turkey tote. It is on a gorgeous, monster Mule Deer Shed Antler. The antler measures approx. 6+ inches in circumference around and is 8+ inches around the burr. It is one of the nicest shed antlers I have come across for a tote and the character of the antler is amazing, all stickered up with tiny points around the base. Capped it off on one end with black walnut and brass pins, has the the heavy duty leather speed loop and brass hardware. It is numbered 1 of 1 with my initials and date of completion. I never made one before with the burr left attached like this. When I saw the character I thought it was to cool to not use.
Carved is a scene of two gobblers, one stepping out from behind a tree and the other fully exposed with mountains and a sun rise in background. The weaker side has a breast feather carved and the burr has a dogwood bloom/flower carved on it. I love this piece. An antler of this size and quality is extremely rare to come by and this is a first ever with the burr attached!!! It is currently listed on EBAY if anyone is interested! It fits the hand so well due to its large diameter size and is just a cool antler. Thanks ---Jason(http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y61/jpshaffer/Turkey%20Totes%20and%20other%20carvings/IMG_0114_zpsb07ba52e.jpg)
