That's pretty cool! My lady would have about enough to cover a bikini but at least she'd be covered! Ha!

Brotsky, as long as you killed one she’d be good to go!

Brotsky, mine would have to make hers out of hogs ears and nut sacks, with a few sets of cutters for decorations :-)

Correct me if I'm wrong but I think many of those were fabricated from the lower leg bones of Moose.
Only thing that makes me say that is, I have had a few moose expire on my place and there is a gentleman from town that always wants the lower leg to carve. He claims that the native dresses were not always all teeth they were carved leg bone. He claims the lower leg of a moose is the largest solid piece of bone (closest to ivory) found on wild game

Not arguing or dissing on the hunting skills, just sharing what I thought was a cool fact.

So if you were a lousy hunter you learned to carve Faux ivories? Kinda like giving your wife a fake diamond.
