Home Forums Gear Knives and Blades Mammoth Ivory

Does anyone use this stuff for scales?

I've got a few nice pieces that deserve better than what they're doing. If they can be put to good use, I'll post them up for 'inspection'.

I've got a slab scheduled to go on a knife. I'll admit to being a little intimidated about cutting it up.

I love the look of it and would love to see what you've got out of curiosity

Several makers use it. Mostly high end stuff. Rick has usea a chit pot load over the years. I recently got my handa on some and like you, when I get near rhe band saw with it I break out in a sweat. Sure looks good though.

Don't bother to show it, just send it to me.

Charles May,I supplied this mammoth. This is a spear point Bob White style. A knife he called a " Pocket Rocket" . That knife & model name, harks back to when most here did not even know who Charles May was or is

OK one more from Vince. A Menefee pocket knife I think a coffin jack

Thanks for taking the time to post all those Vince. I enjoyed the pics.

It felt good Chris Thanks & you're welcome.

Mammoth ivory makes a great handle. It is pretty freaking stable,too. It is vintage. I think like 10,000 years old give or take

Vince, another +1 for posting all the images.

I only own one piece of mammoth and it is on my money clip and the sucker chipped. I would need convincing before placing an order for a knife that I expected to carry. On the other hand, I lust for a finely made custom with mammoth bark.

Vince, you own all those antique firearms?

I don't think Vince owns 'em, but I know the guy who does.

That coffin jack is rockin'.

I have a few coffin jacks. They are quite pricey for an original oldie these days.

I have a pretty cool custom with mammoth scales that I've never taken pics of..........

Heck of a collection - even cooler than the knives, IMHO.

You boys are sick

Spoken by one of the sickest among us.

Hey, wait a minute, I resemble that remark
