I took this handle from a stud buck that a family friend used to own. The family friend raised and sold several different types of exotics and on his small ranch he also raised and sold deer. His stud buck was a monster 13 point that he named John Deer. John Deer was as tame as the family pet. This old buck lived, (and I swear this is the honest truth) 19 years before he died last year. I thought that the amount of years that buck lived was unbelievable! So I decided to make my handle after this magnificant deer.
