Members learn'r Posted January 3, 2007 Members Posted January 3, 2007 would Buffalo Horn be as good as bone for nuts and saddles?
Members Freeman Keller Posted January 3, 2007 Members Posted January 3, 2007 I don't know why not. Bone is just cow bone. As you know things like ivory (which of course is CITIE), fossilized ivory (which for some reason is not) and other bone like materials have all been used - some people claim they can hear a difference. So, you got a horny buffalo?

Members Queequeg Posted January 3, 2007 Members Posted January 3, 2007 Originally posted by Cldplytkmn isn't fossilized ivory not protected because there's no way that it could be harvested from a live animal? that's my understanding, clip. has to be pre-1950. doesnt zackly sound like a fossile, does it?a bit o' poetic license going on there, methinks.

Members Tony Burns Posted January 4, 2007 Members Posted January 4, 2007 i think most of us here are old fossils -
