There is some good material in there for me, that's for sure.

Looking really nice, JW!  This is a piece of the craft that I'm looking forward to learning more about.  I really like the octagonal shaping and   how the coloring will go.  I think I'll be copying your thought process here in the future!  It's gonna be a beauty.

Tracker0721:
So that’s how you got the spout end black. I was gonna ask if it was 2 different horns or something. That’s a smart idea, it really looks good.

JW_Halverson:
A better way to blacken the spout end of the horn is to make up a strong solution of potassium permanganate and soak the horn in it. It penetrates beyond the surface and allows for a polished finish.
