Scrimshaw powder horn

Lee Slikkers:
I love this stuff, anyone have any ideas/tips on where to find horns locally as opposed to commercially?

El Destructo:
Ask around ....local farmers and ranchers usually just haul their dead cattle to a certain spot and let nature run its course....after about a week the outer shell of the horn is slipping...and you can gather them easy....or maybe a local butcher shop that still does local slaughtering....

Wow robby,  beautiful work. I am planning to make a viking Drinking horn, and those have me inspired. I love the carving work.
