Thread: Knife's

Some pretty cool knives on there.
Will have a go at making a couple of those styles.
Anyone know where I can get some 60 000 yo woolly mammoth teeth for a handle? (apart from the obvious)

Mammoth tooth will not work because the teeth are grinders and the wrong shape, the dentin lines would look attractive. Tusk is what you want.

Mammoth tooth works great for handles but isn't the easiest material to work with

I've had two custom knives made with whales teeth scales and both have moved and shrunk. Not sure if you can get whales teeth stablished but this would be the go I think.
