I have used springbok horn before and like the way it polishes up. It is a little rare for me to find some of this but I was lucky to make a trade a few days ago. Feel free to tell me what you think unless you are going to be critical of my low pricing:)

1/8 inch ATS34
Hollow ground
Mirror finish
Springbok horn handle with water buffalo, brass and red spacers
Overall length: 8 7/8 inches
Blade: 4 inches
Hand sewn leather scabbard

BTW, the wrinkles you see in the blade are from a reflection from my photography tent...the blade is really not wrinkled.

$175 ___SOLD_____delivered to the US or Canada. My PayPal account is gldrewknives@yahoo.com I will also take your check with time to clear or USPS money order.

That is a beautiful knife and the horn is a wonderful handle material. I have a horn handled knife that feels like it's part of my hand. The curve just matches my palm. Great Knife!!

Yes, the horn was hollow, now it is filled with epoxi and steel wool. (Strong like re-enforced concrete)

Sorry about the reflection in the photo. Convex planes are hard to picture,
 
Ya' know, if you wouldn't polish your blades and brass so well, you wouldn't have to worry about reflections...
