just cut a hunk out, the tip will be solid for a ways you still need to file it down to shape it for tips, maybe I could do a little how to on tip overlays if that would help ya out , bub

You can't grab that inside lip between thumb and forefinger and wiggle it out? How about a hot water soak for an hour or so then a wigggle? Is it fresh?

Soak it warm water for a few hours.Hold the pointy end and give it a few whacks all around the horn. on a piece of softwood. The core should pop out. If it's really dry it might need a longer soak. It's been a while , but as I recall ,it took a bit of effort but nothing extra human
