On here our workshop page we'll show you some of the methods we both use to make our sticks from ram's & buffalo horn, antler & various woods.
​
Here are a few pictures of us in the work shop
You can look at how Dennis bulks horns with his bulking blocks here. This is a ram's horn, once off the sheep it's seasoned for 12 months. some are so curly they have to be straightened first, then he can get them into the bulking blocks, starting at 1 & 1/2 inch, down to 1/2 an inch. Then on to forming the handle, starting at the heal. working all the way around until the handle is formed.

Scroll through the pictures to see how he does it.
