Was just wondering if anyone had tied to make some grips out of antlers, I would think antler would be strong enough to even make a small beaver tail, if one desires?

I work in a knife shop. We do a lot of handles for knives in antler but I've never thought of making a grip set for my P-64 out of this material. I'd think it would be difficult finding an antler/s that were large enough to fit or cover the grip area of the handgun. Of course, I'm thinking of our standard, Upper Peninsula white-tailed deer antler. I suppose that there are many different animals whose antlers would be large enough. Myself, I've been thinking of make a set of birdseye maple grips for mine, as well as a set of curly Koa handles.
