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?

Have you tried Abbey Horn? Not tried them myself, they did have a varied stock, not sure how you'd find them pricewise.

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.

Yeah, sorry about that  . I read this post in the latest post section and not realised it was in regards to horn bow making when I answered , (I got horn for bow nocks from Highland horn in the past). I have no idea in regards to horn bow making, I don't know if anything useful on Abbey horn site.       
 Apologies,
