Do you think the tools were fashioned before the ivory became mineralized? _________________________ Jim E. “If you don’t know where you are going, you might wind up someplace else.” – Yogi Berra Me 2020

W Polidori Knife Enthusiast Registered: 02/09/16 Posts: 5791 Loc: Central New York	Here's another that was just too pretty to cut; lots of green color and character. We could certainly have made 2 knives from this piece pictured in the middle. This was another that was likely a chisel on one end and perhaps a bearing block. The dimple was just too small to be a firebowl. James said "it's going to need a big blade to tame that handle" Well indeed it is and 3/8" forged stock too.
