Hey fellas, thats horn, not wood. And the surface, thats what happens with sun and drying out. And it happens fast! I need to make a humidifying box for my inventory of blades, all the horn hilts dry up quick in air conditioning. I have to oil them once every few weeks to avoid checking and delaminating. Horn is a great hilt material, but it moves more than just about anything.

I've got a few pieces like this, let me grab some pics soon. This style usually has a leather scabbard, with some fringe at the chape and toe. I like the lines on this one, looks real comfy in the hands.

Cheers,

Garrett
