Some recent Southern banded horns

Had some time off as I had both of my hips replaced. Any reason to get some time in the shop. #3 is a small priming horn.

Not yet. LOL It kind of goes with the second horn in the post. Everytime I make something I really like, somebody buys the d--n thing from me. Or-- I give it to an Auction/fundraiser. My own fault actually.

Steve

PM me in a couple of weeks. I want it at Our Gunmakers Fair on the 24th thru thru the 27th.

#4 is a copy of the little horn on page 72 of Jim Webb's book on Appalachian  bags and accoutrements. Not a perfect copy as the horn does not have sufficient curve to match the one shown in the book. Size and color were good though so I went for it.
