I used to have handicraft business in the Philippines and made a lot of items made from water buffalo horns the main complain received from customer was the shrinkage of horn as it ages.If you can provide or guarranty this material use will not deform or shrink as it age then I might be interested to distribute this here.Let me know.pm to reach me.

You seen serious problem:
Horn will shrink or deform depending on the part which you use!They have cheaper prices because they not use tip horn--the hollow part of horn will shrink or deform! Because they press it to big part and produce grips!

1.Your items buy form Philippines made from don't use tip.
2.My grips produce as correct every detail,special in two hole!It will not shrink or deform!

That is beautiful work. I really like the black horn models with veining.

I wonder if there's any concerns about these from a perspective of importing animal parts? Hope not, some of those are just beautiful, my favorite are the marbled ones. Too bad I don't have a 1911 to put them on.

Your grips and materials are very beautiful!
