DIY RS Antler Fork            

Several months ago, I made a friend with a rustic, unique utensil at the Georgia Bushcraft Fall Event 2024. It caught my eye, and before I could count to five, he offered it as a gift. 

The DIY RS Antler Fork was crafted from carbon steel and deer antler and fastened with epoxy for a long lifespan.

Rodney Smitherman makes excellent camp utensils for good eats if I ever saw some. Rodney finds carbon steel forks sourced from antique stores around the 1860 Civil War era.

“I love the old-style look, and I have plenty of old deer antlers around since my two sons and I have been hunting for many years,” said Rodney.

He drilled out the antler and added epoxy to hold it securely in all weather. The natural appearance and feel of antler handles are unmatched. No wonder they are so popular in the knife and gun industry. What an amazing way of using the forest’s natural resources and repurposing them for the next generation. Thank you, Rodney!
