    Rehandling A Mora Clipper

    Our local pet shop have re-stocked their dog chews so I had a rummage for the best pieces of antler and decided to rehandle my old Mora Clipper.
    Here's a few pictures of the end result. If you want to see more pictures and more words then click on my blog (in signature below).

    Thats a really nice mod. You are going to have to make little leather sheath to go with it now Dog chews eh? so that's where all the Antler goes....

    Great looking Mod. What's worse is that Antler is really bad for the dogs teeth, it's often too brittle and hard and the dogs end up breaking their teeth on it.

    Interesting. I've not heard of that. Sounds possible though.
    We've had three Kent Police German Shepard's from pups and they've all had antler with no teeth issues. ...famous last words, ha!
