Nothing special....just had a small horn that was too big for a salt horn an too small for a full size horn. Excellent size for a day horn though. The spout has a brass insert and a cap that doubles as a powder measure.

you have an awesome artistic talent when it comes to scrim, the balance n detail etc are off the charts fine, one question? did you make the brass tip yourself or can they be purchased someplace, I like the way that looks n works-- :thumbsup: :bow: YMHS Birdman
 
Thanks to all for the kind comments.

Birdman - I made the spout / powder measure for this and a few other horns. This type of hardware is not commercially available anywhere that I know of.

Jack - Yes, I made this horn in 2001...doesn't seem like 11 years ago, but it was! Actually, I made the horn a few years before that but didn't get around to scrimshawing it until 2001. That's why I don't bother aging most of my horns and guns. Just like me, they will get very old fast enough.
