He was a nightmare to carve, made fromold Sea Cow bone full of little pockets which all seem to crop up when you dont wan't them to, nose mouth tongue etc,wrong choice of material for a tight carving, the bone just isn't dense enough, but I love him. The other hook is a composite hook Ebony and Mammoth Ivory, will post a few more hooks up soon. Thanks for looking, any comments welcomed Best Regards Flynny
