Max, that's great job! 

Did you use a punch to do the job?  The dome shape is really well formed!

Thanks Myron, Sir Vic, comis, Steve.  :hatsoff:

Comis, no punch. Just some careful tapping with a ball hammer around the edge of the rivet. I then polish up with a soft wheel on a Dremel. I did a little wire brush work to get a lighter colour on the horn which has scratched up the rivets a little, bit the pic below shows the detail.  :tu:

Btw, a long soak in Acetone sorted the permanent marker (sorry Aloha, this one’s a keeper).  :)

The rehandle, with the stag, looks amazing.

Thanks for the explanation, and this is looking even better with the clean up!  Awesome job!

Thanks PitCarver, comis, hulk.  :hatsoff:

Aloha, you must not tempt me...how about this for a matching set of customs, all with stag horn:

84mm = Lumberjack
91mm = Yeoman
111mm = Skipper Pro

In a nice presentation box?  :whistle:

Ha-ha, you have the OG stag version Reinier!  :cheers:

(But I did borrow the 2-rivet idea from your pic)
