"Living between the real world of being a family man, and the bizarre world of movie making and celebrity life-styles, I see how easily it is to become anything you want… and believe it! When I found this incredible piece of naturally harvested deer antler from Maui, I was really taken by the crown. 

Its' large open face lent itself to all kinds of creative ideas, like I did with "The Bleeding Rose" knife. But once I fastened the muscular blade, and felt the balance and weight of the knife in my hand, I thought how, in different hands, this could mean so many different things.

I had never done this before, but I thought it would be interesting to make a knife at a reduced rate, leaving the face of the crown blank, so that the buyer could make this knife into any fantasy he or she has. You can have it carved or engraved, or do what I have been doing every time I pick up this special piece… just hold it in your hand and let it take you where it itself decides to go that day!
