Horn Items


Here is a batch or horn, spoons, powderhorns, antelope horn cases, arrow shaft straiteners. Horn is an awesome to scrape,sand then polish. Buffalo, bighorn sheep and antelope horn I have worked them all from a rough flaky to a shine. Buffalo horn is so easy to work with when compared to antelope horn. Prairie goat horn is made up of prickly hair matted together. You can polish all you want but spines kick out, so i burned them and it works somewhat. Anyways most of the powderhorns have been sold but I plan to finish the spoons with beadwork and tin cones this winter.
