Welcome Home...THANK YOU FOR BEING A PART OF OUR COMMUNITY

What I collect not what I make. I have worked in Stag as well as Mammoth Bark {Ivory). Don't be afraid of using this material it works well as long as you work with the grain. Mammoth is defiantly easier to work with than Stag. You need to get the "fresh" stuff that has been stabilized. I you wind up with fossilized bark that is a whole different type of machinery....think Lapidary.

So here is what I collect. Though truth be told I probably could make them. The SB's are really not all that tough to make. Snail springs and a lathe and mill is all you need. Hey I got that stuff. Enjoy

Hi Dale,

I am a member or I could not post.

Nice knife by the way. Those small blades are hard to make crisp. Hope to meet you. Ken
