I'm looking for a source for fossil ivory and is there a specific type that people are using in their grips? Any suggestions? Re: Fossil Ivory

Mark,
I don't know where you live, but the natives in Alaska when I was stationed up there would find it in the peet moss on the shoreline. If you're a US citizen you would have to have it built into something by a native american before you can purchase it. Raw materials from animal parts such a polar bear, walrus, etc. are not allowed under our laws. Edited 1 time(s). Last edit at 04/19/2008 05:33PM by Spencer Phipps. Re: Fossil Ivory

Get with Terry Henson ... he IS the ivory guy and VERY careful as to laws/regulations. Search for his posts here and use the link to his e-mail address. Re: Fossil Ivory

John B. your quick response to provide access links to contraband is quite astounding! Do you as a resident of Florida also have local links to the nearby cash crop products of Jamaica? Some of them would make my rodbuilding efforts quite painless! }>

Wart hog ivory is available and can be used but the diameter is limited to roughly 24mms. I use it occasionally for tips on wood grips. Do a search on it and you should find some if it will work for you. Stan Grace Helena, MT "Our best is none too good" Re: Fossil Ivory
