The buff horn is from Asian or African buffalos.
When I get a chance to get some with the white streaks I grab them up.
As GW mentioned, it gets tacky with moisture or blood---- instead of slippery.
The black outer sheath of American bison is not easy to use as it is so thin.
Water buffalo have basically solid horns.
Thanks for the reports and comments.
