Here are some really very nice ancient walrus ivory tusk sections for hidden tang knives. Technically, they are all artifacts, but you can see that many of these were used as tools or fire starters. It's best to let them acclimate to your climate before using, a month or two would be fine. I am happy to answer any questions about the stuff or working with it. It is guaranteed to be legal and naturally colored, happiness is guaranteed, if you find you can't use it when you get it in your hands, return it for your purchase price back, please do that within seven days. I take all the normal forms of payment, Paypal, checks, or credit cards over the phone. The prices shown will be plus shipping and insurance, I ship using USPS flat rate shipping where I can, I ship anywhere it is legal and charge only the actual shipping charges. You may PM me, email me or call me on the phone (though sometimes I have loud machines running and can't hear it).

*All international orders for fossil walrus ivory will require a CITES permit.*

Hi Mark. I'm potentially interested in #9 but can't really tell how much dentin / core it has. Is there enough dentin all sides to shape it a bit without getting into core? If so, I'll gladly take it

Hi Wulf,
The core on this piece is very small. The dentin on the small side is a 1/4" thick on small end and about 3/8" thick on large end. So you should have no problem. I'll mark this sold. Thanks Mark.

Thanks Mark. Paypal sent. This one's destined for a nice damascus dagger that's been searching for the right handle. Think this will do well
