Picked up this Bill Schiller custom knife over the weekend. A good friend of mine came across this knife maker hunting whitetail up in Carrot River,SK. Anyone want to take a stab at what the handles are made from ?

It's beautiful, any idea on cost.

Any deer pics from the trip?

Thanks, but the only reason I guessed giraffe bone is because I've seen a lot of giraffe bone grips for 1911's and single action revolvers lately, and your scales looked a lot like those.
