Elk teeth

[Chadentwistle]

Does anyone have some good ideas how to incorporate elk teeth in knife handles/scales.

I'd love to see some examples.

Thanks
Chad

Check out the bark river pine cone or corn cob handles. You could stack the teeth might be cool.

Are you talking about the normal teeth, or the ivories which are also known as whistle teeth?
If you are talking about the ivories, from what I have seen they are normally used as an inlay in wood scales. Most examples I have found online are knives made by Al Warren. I also saw a couple examples of where people put the inlay in the crown of an antler handled knife.

Good luck
Chris

Yes sir, the "ivorys" or buglers. And dAmnit! I had a very nice conversation with Al Warren at the PKA knife show this weekend....
