Whitetail antlers also make really cool pens. You just cut them to length, chuck them up on the lathe and turn them to size and give them about 5 really heavy coats of varnish. If I ever get back home, I will snap a few photos of some I have made and post them.

I have a lot of antlers up in the barn. Gonna try to hit some yard sales this summer and try to find some old knives and clean them up and use the antlers for handles

You can work them with just standard woodworking tools. They do stink like hell, but they come out looking really nice.
