Rhino koummya

Very nice puppy. I usually don't go for these, but this one with the silver and the rhino horn (and it is true rhino horn - it is translucent) is very nice indeed. I doubt that you will find a damascus steel blade however.

I just love good rhino horn.

Rhino horn is not always translucent. I have one totally black under any light. And another one is a dark brown that is little translucent only in front of a very strong light. It has to do with the process or the different kind of rhinos? I don’t know.

I need to add that I love rhino horns too. But only proven antique ones. And only on antique daggers. I hate the idea that someone can kill a rhino today for a dagger.

It is a crime
