Wanted- Reindeer Horn

[The Big Lebowski]

I would like to source a nice 'Y' section of reindeer horn to use as a cup for a bowdrill set, could anyone point me in the right direction of a UK stockist?

Regards, TBL.

I generally use an astralagus bone for my bowdrill sets. Sheep, deer, moose, all will work.

Thanks for that... Interesting tip!

Sheep carcases are one thing we have plenty of around here.

They have a nice hollow, and fit nicely in the hand.

Just wondering if i can get a slightly larger one form the local butchers... as i have fairly large hands!

They are the old fashoned type, as-in they actually butcher, rather than unpack.

Thanks again, al.

I get most of my reindeer antler from Brisa, great to deal with and cheap too!

pet shops are a good bet for bone, i've made a few bearing blocks from bones stolen from the dog, he's still not forgiven me.

Great tips thanks guys!

Hi Tom, i would ideally like a 'Y' section or trimmed fork that you would normally use for the top of a walking stick, something that you would be able to hold comfortably in your left hand.

Size wise, i guess medium? small enough to hang off my neck on some paracord, but big enough to get a comfortable grip, not much help, i know LoL!!

I would be grateful if you could have a look into it, regards, al.
