Highland Horn closed?
stuckinthemud:
Been trying to find the Highland Horn website and failed, then found a post on a stick-making forum that the owner retired. Other than The Stickman, anyone know of a decent alternative to HH?
Ruddy Darter:
Have you tried Abbey Horn? Not tried them myself, they did have a varied stock, not sure how you'd find them pricewise.

stuckinthemud:
No. Will check them out. Ta

You might be able to find a breeder/grower as a direct source, assuming they poll the horns. The cleaning, smoothing , and polishing is a bit of work. Here in the US, a slaughter house, a rancher, or a feed lot would be likely sources. Not sure how long the Highland horns are.
