    Wicked! However, Major Rex Applegate was of the opinion that the flash of a bright blade added to the psychological impact.

    So that dust from cutting and sanding antler, particularly any tool that puts that dust in the air, is incredibly bad for your lungs. Please make sure to wear a dust mask when working with horn and antler, stay safe.
