I used a bunch of my ivories as zipper handles on my Badlands Superday pack. They work well and are attractive there.

Jaquomo... I have killed two bulls in my very limited elk hunting experiences and the second bull had double ivories.

Double ivories would mean four??? Never heard of that.

Here are mine! Never figured out what to do with them. I have taken 3 bulls (all rifle)and 1 cow (muzzy) but only have 5 teeth. Lost one in the house (small grandkids visiting)and two got left in the head of the cow I shot with the smoke pole. The two best looking ones came from an Idaho bull Killed in the Middle-fork of the Frank Church Wilderness. One of my more memorable hunting trips. I'm leaning towards a Bolo tie mount of some kind. Never seem to get around to such projects. Let's see some more uses for these treasures!

I had one of these made for my wife from her bull and she loved it.

Very cool. One of my buddies killed a Bull this year with vestigial fangs along with his ivories...

I tied a pair into the laces on my Stormy Kromer hat and they get all kinds of compliments and questions.
