Perfect for custom cue building, cue upgrades, cue repair, and decorative inlays, buffalo horn remains a popular natural material among cue makers.

These slabs are cut from the finest Elephant Ivory Tusk. We sell this in two sizes; small random slabs and large random slabs.

Small random slabs are .125 thick. They vary in width from 1/2 inch up in to perhaps 1 inch in width and usually run 2" to 4" in length. These are random slabs and are priced as random slabs. At this price you cannot specify lengths and/or widths.

Large random slabs are .125 thick. They vary in width from 1 inch up to perhaps 3 or 4 inchs in width and usually run 4" up to 10" in length. These are random slabs and are priced as random slabs.

At the above prices, you cannot specify lengths and/or widths. We are selling this by the ounce. The larger your order, the larger the pieces we can offer you. If you order 2 ounces of random large slabs, we can't provide you with 10" lengths. Remember, the wider and longer pieces require more weight so we recommend ordering at least 4 ounces to get some super large pieces. We will round your order up or down to accommodate what we supply. In-other-words, you may order 4 ounces but we may supply 3.75 ounces or we could supply 4.5 ounces depending on the size of slabs and weight of the slabs we choose to come close to your ordered weight.

We no longer custom cut sizes. We sell only quality, pre-ban and well documented ivory. We make the market and you won't find it for less.

The Short Story: If you wish to purchase ivory, you must be a resident of the State of Florida. If you are not a Florida resident then no legal pre ban ivory may be purchased.

YOU ARE FREE TO PURCHASE ANYTHING ELSE.

By purchasing LEGAL PRE BAN IVORY ONLY from this web site, you attest and confirm that you are a legal resident of the State of Florida and have absolutely no intention of shipping any legal pre ban ivory out of the State of Florida.

We can only ship legal pre ban ivory to Florida residents only. Absolutely NO interstate sales. Florida sales only.

NOTICE: We will vigorously assist law enforcement on any out-of-state customers or alleged “straw man” deals which could violate the law. What is a "straw man" deal? When you ask your friend, relative or whatever who resides in Florida to make the purchase for you with the intentions of having them ship it to you in your state.

Also, we will not ship pre ban ivory to hotels while you are visiting Florida. Florida pre ban ivory sales to Florida residents only! Period!
