Horn ~ Indian River Jack

That's really nice. I like the horn handles, they add a very rugged look to that design. I do have a question though. Why is there a green-ish color on the front handles but not the back?

It appears to be polish/buffing compound, the guy I got it from said it's the 2nd time he's had the knife. Was like that when he sold it and when he bought it back. So I left it that way also, as it really does make the detail of the horn stand out more.

I definitely like those bone handles.

Yes, I agree. I like the look of that green. I'm sure some "purists" would rather have the look of the horn by itself without the green, and I can certainly understand that, but for me, I like that green.

Very nice knife you have. It seems to have both a rugged, and elegant appearance to it. Well done Sir.

That is some absolutely gorgeous horn on that knife. Congratulations. You done good.
