- See the product description below for tips on how to work with this buffalo horn.
- Approximate Length: 5 inches, Approximate Width: 1.5 inches, Approximate Thickness: 3/8 inch
- Use regular woodworking tools to cut and shape this material. Try to leave as much of the surface area untouched as possible to retain as much of the colored dye as possible. Due to the density of buffalo horn, the dye is only able to penetrate about 1mm deep into the material. Also please note that any cut or sanded portions will temporarily appear gray-- just polish and buff these areas to return them to a beautiful, deep, glossy sheen.
- You will receive two pieces. See the second picture for some examples of variations. Every set of scales WILL differ in pattern, texture, color and shape. Each is cut from naturally occurring horn/bone.
- Create your own beautiful knife handles for your own custom knives! We also sell beautiful mosaic pins to attach your handles with! Check out our other items.

Tips for working with this buffalo horn:
- Use regular woodworking tools to cut and shape this material.
- When shaping your handle, try to leave as much of the surface area untouched as possible to retain as much of the colored areas as possible. Due to the density of buffalo horn, the dye is only able to penetrate about 1mm deep into the material.
- Please note that any cut or sanded portions will turn a dull gray color. Just polish and buff these areas to return them to a beautiful, deep, glossy sheen.
- If thinning the scales is required, it is recommended that you sand the back-side of the scales (facing your blade's handle), to leave as much of the outside of the buffalo horn as untouched as possible.
- Sometimes the pieces may require sanding to become perfectly flat. A standard belt sander works well for this job.
- The final step of buffing and polishing buffalo horn is a must, as it will darken and become glossy with a brilliant sheen.
