It is outstanding handle material for sure. I have 3 knives I made a while back that I keep threatening to use, but mostly just look at them. Nice pics Vince. For sale?

Yeah, I am considering selling some personal knives. I can text a pic of a couple Musk Ox handled knives to serious interested potential buyers. I will have to do some sorting and price calculating. Thanks Tim PS: Posting pics on 24hr is a pain for me. I thing GW has the only Musk Ox handled knife I have ever sold to my best recolection.

Robert Did you find a source for musk ox horn and/or a knife made with it???
Doubt if I acquire any more, but you never know and a possible source would be good to know.

WOW!!!! Looking at some pics and prices for musk ox horn, I will be doubling the prices of any musk ox horn handled knives I might sell. Damned near the price of gold. Thanks for the info Robert. Tim
