When my oldest was made an Eagle Scout, I had Billy Bob make a really nice custom hunter with whitetail antler handles to commemorate his achievement:

https://texashuntingforum.com/forum/ubbthreads.php/topics/3235128/1

Now my youngest is getting ready to do his Eagle Scout project so I will be the proud father of a 2nd Eagle Scout. I looked but can find no evidence that Billy Bob is still on the forum or making knives, so would like to see whom else in the THF knife making community can help me out.

It doesn't have to be identical, but I would like a similar sized hunting knife with white tail antler handles and Eagle Scout logos inset into each handle, with one side of the blade inscribed with his name and troop number.

Please provide me pics of what you can do, delivery time and cost information.

Thanks!
Earl

Damn, sorry to hear that Marc. His knife is a cherished possession of my oldest. I was afraid of that when I noticed that he hadn't posted since 2017 and had no activity on his knife page. Earl

Thank you Bob, I'm looking forward to seeing the knife and presenting it to him. My oldest has kept Billy Bob's in his hunting bag since he got it and takes it on every trip. Earl
