This piece of Musk Ox horn was a bit short so I put it between some blackwood.

Amazing stuff and nice knife.  I have always wanted to make me a pen out of Musk Ox horn.  Maybe one day I will be able to put my hands on some.

Lin, so many of your knives look almost too pretty to carry in the woods. Great work!

Lin,
Just breath taking the white Musk Ox and contrasting blackwood.  By the way I love my Blacksmith knife...gives me something to shoot for.
