Uncle John I bagged this ivory with the old lady's visa. Plastic Kills! I know, because when she found the bill, it was a real near death experience for me!!!

PapaSimone, mastodon ivory is the "bark" off of a woolly mammoth tusk. Like the elephants of today the tusk are Ivory. The Ivory is anywhere from 150,000 to 10,000 years old. Mastodon Ivory is still found in fairly large quantities in Siberia and Alaska.

Why yes, I do make knives, that is some good detective work there Mr. Bingham.

That is fine, fine, fine. One of the prettiest. Did you get the masotodon with a bow or shotgun?

Very nice. What is mastodon ivory?

Very nice looking build! When I see mastodon ivory and mosaic pins I suspect there's a knife maker around.
