Fossil walrus ivory tusk tip 2.8 ounces. 5 ½ inches long x about 1 inch in diameter. This is an artifact digging tool about 2,000 years old. I left some original stone work marks if you want an artifact handle. Good colors solid no cracks. Good for hidden tang feels comfortable as in for handle. $115

The above artifact could be turned on a lathe if desired, has enough light color to be scrimmed could be carved or left as an artifact. Good material, harder to get, going up in value each year . Holds up better then mammoth ivory (not as old). Restricted to USA sales please (just don’t want to mess with all the paperwork and permits for overseas).

Fossil walrus ivory tusk tip 6.5 ounces. 6 inches long x 2 inches at the widest and a uniform ¾ inches thick. Solid no cracks good colors including gray blue. Interesting contrast from one side to the other. Feels comfortable as is for hidden tang but could be split for scales. $190
