Description

Hey everybody! Just to prove I'm not dead, I'm posting this picture up! I've been making hooks for a little while now, and here are some that I still need to finish up. They all need to be wrapped, and when they are, you will get to see each one individually!

So now I will attempt to tell you what these are all made of.

The two in the upper left (the two medium ones) are made from elk antler, which is very white in appearance with a lot of black spots and strange patterns.

The six in the middle are all made from tagua nut. The small three are made from small nuts, the larger three (two medium ones and one large one) are made from larger nuts, with the largest one sporting some natural voids often found in the larger nuts. You can always wikipedia tagua nut and tagua palm on wikipedia. Here's a link to my suppliers and the people I work with regarding this amazing material. [link]

The three hooks on the right are made from beef bone. The medium bone was smoked to gain that brown color. The large and huge hooks are both white with no discolorations.

The small hooks are 1 and 3/8 inches long, the medium hooks are 1 and 5/8 inches long, the large hooks are 2 and 1/8 inches long, and the huge hook is 3 inches long.

Tell me what you think! Thank you!
