We did these primarily to do the ivory before the ban hits, so we did a very large number of them. I wanted to do it on a knife that could fully display its beauty. The ivory price went up substantially as the ban grew closer. I ordered the ivory for this when I first got wind of the possibility. So I got the ivory at the same price as before. These should be within a couple dollars as last time.
We do, however have a couple bone choices and a ebony.
Im glad you went that way. I hope I'll be able to get one sometime. Thanks for the info!
