Custom 8/8 Barber's Notch in red horn.
8/8 Barber's notch that will be heading to lz6
He was looking or something red, so I started looking around to see what I had.
At the bottom of my pile I found a piece of dyed red horn, so I thought I would give it a try.
I have to say about half through sanding it, I thought for sure I would throwing it in the trash.
I decided leave the face of the horn as it, with imperfections and all. I thought, if it happen to polish up OK, the imperfections for give it an old/worn look to it.
Once I started polishing it, I really like how it was turning out. It's almost a 2-tone color (which doesn't really come through in the pics)
Anyway, her she is

You do realize that you aren't supposed to make his cooler than mine. I guess I'll just have to order another to top it. That is amazing, yes I still love mine, but wow!
