I just completed this horn (#35) which I named the "Constitution Horn". It bears the full Preamble of the United States Constitution. I was inspired to do this due to recent events. Reading and inscribing these words onto this horn brought up a lot of feelings. The horn measures 13" along the...

This Map Horn of part of the Cumberland River in Tennessee will be going out to Washington to be paired with a Southern Mountain Rifle. What a great combination!

I was asked if I could make a German/Pennsylvania Dutch style horn for a member here, but I explained that I don't really do commission work any more. I was interested in making one though (I love creating American Folk Art), and showed him the finished horn and it fast became his. I used...

**SOLD Pending Funds** Just finished this lobed-style Powder Horn (Number 28). It's a pretty nice one :) I went with nice engraved decorations on this horn because I liked the marbling on the horn surface and didn't want to cover it. Towards the upper section of the body the horn turns clear and...

I finished this horn up today (#23) and had intended to sell it, but when I was pounding in the tail staple I cracked the wooden plug! (The staple prongs were too fat, just as I thought!) It was an easy repair but I won't sell it now. It looks nice on my shooting pouch though :)

Hey all. I had a buffalo powder horn kicking around that I had started a while ago. I finally kicked myself hard enough to finish it. My plan was to boil it in oil and flatten it. Not common for buffalo I know, but I've seen it done before. Well, like an idiot, I left my horn in the oil while...

I did a search, and I don't think this has been posted before,. If I'm wrong, please delete. Here's a link to a PDF of "American Engraved Powder Horns: A Study Based on the J. H. Grenville Gilbert Collection" published in 1945. It's a survey of a horn collection including pictures, drawings of...

Hey all. I want to make my first powder horn finally. I bought a buffalo horn, it's ready to go. I would love to make a flat horn, but can I make a flat horn from a buffalo horn? I was told it would be too thick. If I can, did they make flat buffalo horns back then? I would like to be authentic...
