I've recently become enamored with Queen's buffalo horn series. Here's what I've collected from them so far:

Cory, that Ruple is a true gem! I have many knives in ram's horn, both smooth interior and bark exterior, but only one in buff horn. It's a Tidioute #53 Cuban, but so far no pics. I'll remedy that tomorrow, and add to this thread.
 
Beautiful Cory, great pics too :thumbup:



 
I was up a little late last night and wasn't posting properly. :o

Those are both beautiful knives you posted up, Jack. How old do you figure that tackler's knife to be? It really is a neat looking knife.
 
Here are the just taken photos of my buffalo horn #53 Cuban. Very fine white streaking on this one, both sides,
and very flush with the bolsters. This one was made in 2007.

That is quite the chunk of horn on that yataghan. What is the length of that handle? Do you have close up pictures of the horn? Is it jet black all the way around?

Great looking knives everybody. Each one is more beautiful than the last. Keep them coming.
