I shot a bear last fall and would like to save the claws. After butchering it I was too exhausted so I cut the paws off and put them in my freezer.
Anyone have an idea how to get them off the paws? I had thought about c-clamping them still frozen to a sawhorse and using a sawzall, but didn't get to it over the winter when it was nice and cold. Is that a viable method? I don't know what I'll do with them, maybe drill and string them like on a necklace (more likely to hang on my wall than around my neck), or maybe just keep them in a bowl when they're clean and dry.
Is it worth the effort? Does anyone else save them?
