My only comment would be - Excellent job for a first, fifth, or tenth horn. From what I can see it looks well done and you did a nice job finishing and aging it. I like it.

Very nice horn. I've always had a soft spot for these banded horns. Thanks for posting.

 Good looking horn, nice turnings. Be careful...they're addictive.

Beautiful horn, Hornbuilder!
Love the bands and colour!!

If you don't mind me saying though, I prefer them without the elongated spuot.  I can imagine catching them on something when woods running.

Excellent choice of horn. Nice double twist, color, and size. executed well. Great turnings. Excellent placement of bands. Thanks for sharing.

Primo!
Questions, is the knob on the butt removeable? And is the spout 1pc or two?

No the knob on the back of the plug is antler and isn't removable , Just curious why would you want to remove it ? The spout is one piece of turned antler threaded onto the horn .
