Brian Knight Taxidermy / Custom Game Calls & Drone

Brian Knight Taxidermy handles your hunting memories like they matter—because they do. This is a taxidermist who's won state, national, and world awards, and his work shows it. He's been doing this for over 40 years in Akron, and people keep coming back because his mounts look genuinely alive.

CWD Certified and equipped to handle everything from deer to exotic animals. His reputation is built on one thing: attention to detail. Multiple customers mention that when you put one of his mounts next to work from another taxidermist, his immediately stands out.
