    That's what I'm leaning towards. But it'd have to be with a decent amount of streaks. Something with more character than solid black horn.

    My other picks would be padauk or purple heart. I guess my decision will come when the blade is in hand.

    A mixed black/blonde horn would look fantastic on that blade - the right mix seems hard to find though - I have a couple done that way and I think the look is fantastic...

    Scale making time.

    I ordered some horn, but for now I'm going to play around with a less traditional design just for fun.
