    Are you talking about their teeth?
    The challenge of retirement is how to spend time without spending money.

    Look around is there someone you can introduce to shooting because that’s the only way we will buck the anti gun trend sweeping Canada! "tigrr 2006"

    The ivory from younger bulls looks better imo.
    Jeweler friend made the silver clasps that let the ivory lay flat for a single pendent.
    Ivory from my 7x7 is smaller and stained almost to an orange colour. Not as nice imo.
    Pendent made for a woman.

    I have several ivory teeth somewhere in a jar somewhere in the garage. Never did get around to doing anything with them but I had good intentions when I saw pictures of what others did. Better do something when you get them or you'll be like me wondering where you put them.

    Bonez those look beautiful. Where did you get that done?

    High and to the right, I know what you mean. I've had a few come and go that I don't usually take them anymore.

    I've done a few of mine but have passed them as gifts.
    Ear rings, necklace pendants, rings or saw a few bolo ties too that looked pretty cool.
