More about Deer Antlers
The stag belongs to the deer family. But only males have antlers.
Their former antlers fall down and new ones grow out each year during the heat period, in order to reach their maximum size.
Because of antler's hardness prehistoric people used it to make sharpening tools. This is no doubt one of the hardest cutlery materials since it can't be shaped like an olive wood.
