Thread: Camel Bone

Does anyone in the US have a good source of camel bone for razor scales? I have located several, but I would like to find one that a member has found to be reliable and selling a consistently good product.
Thanks

Definitely a question I never thought I'd hear...

This will help explain:

Oh yes indeed! Gorgeous...now, if you'll excuse me, I'm off to slaughter some camels...

They are not located in US but this is my main source for material related to knife making:

I do mostly "nordic" knives but I have always been satisfied with the quality of Brisa's material. But I notice that the camel bone scales they have listed on the webpage are only 13cm long. I'm afraid that´s slightly short for razor scales but I guess you always could ask them about longer pieces. The company is within driving distance from where I live and I have visited them a couple of times. I know that they cut most of the materials in their own facilities. Not sure about the camel bone but If they do, then I would believe that they can cut you some longer scales too the next time they are processing a batch.

Check on Amazon. I have dealt with a few vendors there and the material I have gotten is superior to some I have bought at expensive knife supplies. Some of these small vendors have nice stuff.
