Wow...those are really nice!
I like them alot and they seem like a deal for 50 bucks. Ajax and others sell buffalo horn grips for more than that and they don't look nearly that good. - Brickboy240

apparently the guy makes them from the solid piece of the horn to eliminate any shrinking, which is a common problem with this type of material....from what I hear.
Anyways I'll probably order a set sometime soon....
