Marcus has kindly sent me this hornbeam raw antler, a thin and muscolar branch of a wonderful wood. I wanted to make it all "by-hand", carving with my knife only and finishing with sand-paper. I gave him some Camelia Oil (excellent!!!) that my friend Strikewzen sent me and finally waxed with beeswax to protect it. The catapult meaures cm. 17,5 lenght ; outer wide forks cm. 8,5 ; inner wide forks cm. 4,5. Thank you Marcus. Cheers, Bob.

thats absolutely stunning Bob,no one could of made that look that way,fantastic work

[strikewzen]

wow with a thin fork you were still able to somehow get your signature in there, and the slanted fork tips is another great touch on a medium width fork!

marcus is the man, he shares what he finds with us for that i thank him, without either of you this fork wouldn't have the chance to shine!

Thanks mates, I followed the natural shape of the fork. Marcus has chosen a real nice antler for me and the wood was wonderful itself.
