Ox Horn

Whole, uncut, hollow Ox horn carefully selected for a workable combination of straightness / one plane curve / lack of spiral aspect, wall thickness and mixed colours. Significantly more pliable than Water Buffalo horn, this material may have any minor natural shape "issues" corrected with a minimal application of heat and pressure. The unique layering of colours make it a particularly rewarding material to work with.

Buffalo Horns ( full )

Full length ( hollow portion plus solid tip ) of selected, regular crescent shaped swamp type Water Buffalo horns of Chinese origin. Selected horns for bow building have curvature in one plane only and no side twist. Selection further ensures no deep dimpling / cracks that will take away form the potential of the material. If you have the equipment to cut these for yourself, then you will have all the extra material ( side strips and points ) left over to use on other jobs. If not see our catalogue entry for "backstrip" cut horn.
Note: Whole horns are heavier to ship outwith the UK, but contact us for comparative figures on shipping costs to be sure.
80 - 90cm horns are RARE and take time to find in bulk stock - thus a premium is payable and the order may take A FEW WEEKS to enable selection from bulk stored material.

Buffalo Horn back strips

Take a look at the catalogue entry for "full horns". Backstrips are £1 per item more expensive, having handling + cutting included in the price. You receive the "back strip" material with it's natural internal and external surfaces, ready to dress down and dimension. These are lighter in weight to send overseas, so saving on shipping costs and with the cutting already done for you. Typically a generous 50mm in width, and your specified length on the outer arc.
Photo shows backstrip removed by bandsawing from typical , suitable horn. We can forward either "just" the strips ( to save carriage costs ) or strips plus offcuts where carriage costs are quioted ahead of payment and approved by you. If you want the leftover material also sent....mention this in the comments field at the end of the ordering process please.
