Recommended source for Black horn overlay material?
« on: May 30, 2011, 06:44:24 pm »
Hey guys, I would like to use some black horn overlay on my tips and was wondering about a good / recommended source that some of you may have used in the past.  It would be great if that source also carried a line up of B-50 and serving material as I need those as well.

Many thanks!

Ya they don't say "colors may vary" so who knows. If you call them they would probably make sure you got a nice black piece.

I like the folks at 3rivers, so I hope you go there.  But, if you can't get what you want, search for horn knife scales on ebay and you'll find boat loads of hits.

George, I did place the order through 3 Rivers.  I'm anxious to keep moving on this bow so I figured the bigger retailer would get it to me a touch quicker.

Thanks R H Clark, I'll have to check them out next time I need some.
