Gentleman...If this is the wrong forum to be asking this question,please redirect me..I have quite a selection of Samba antlers that i have hunted locally..What is traditionally used to dye the antler? I have used walnut husks in the past and that do,s a fine job..Grateful for any info....with thanks FES........
 
I think the "Maintenance, Tinkering & Embellishment" forum will be a better locale to get the appropriate info...or at least get the ball rolling. (Thread moved...link retained.)
 
Might take a look over in the 'Knife Maker's Discussion Forums' forum here:

And the 'Shop Talk - BladeSmith Questions and Answers' sub-forum here:

Hope this helps. Good luck.

By the way, it might also be worth posting your question in the Knife Maker's & Shop Talk forums referenced above. That's where you're likely to find the real experts who do this sort of work on a regular basis.
