i have a horn that i made that i have scraped down untill you can see through it and i have heard of other makers makein some and have heard of it back in the day. i think that the long hunters fronteirsmen and almost anyone on the fronteir who lived by the rifle would want to know exactly how much powder they have because that could mean the diffeance between life and death and meat or no meat (i saw meat because at any season there is plenty of food all you have to know is what it is and how to get it)dont get me wrong i like scrimshaw it is a artform and is hard work and takes talent but i think and have heard that on the ever changing fronteir it was not a good horn untill you could see the grains in it. my first horn was black and i can see through it just fine . just wrote this to share my knowledge and my opinion and mabey inspire someone else . bye :m2c:
