SAMBAR & AXIS DEER STAG HORN.

One of the most widely used natural materials for knife handles. It comes in a variety of shapes, sizes, colors and textures.
Works easy with hand or power tools, carves and shapes well and polishes to a high luster.
Ask the supplier for your preferred color or texture, they will try their best to meet your needs.

Stag horn is imported directly from India, however this deer ranges from India and Nepal to southern Asia.
The stag from India is the best, because it is much more dense then from anywhere else in the world.
You can see that there is much thicker "Ivory" outer layer than on horns from any other part, continent of the world.
Generally the stag sticks under 1-3/4" are from Axis deer.
The male of this large red deer bears long three tined antlers, which it sheds annually.
These are harvested for knife handles and pistol grips.
As a genera rule, all larger pieces of stag and all cut scales, slabs and carvers come from Sambar Elk of India.
Note: Crown stick is the part of the antler nearest to the animal's head. It has what the Europeans call a "ROSE" on its base.
Carver handles are curved, tapered pieces cut from the brow tine, naturally beautiful.
You can buy Scales, Crown sticks, Crown slabs, Stag Sticks and Tapers,small and large carvers.
