I am doing a series of barlow and slip joint knives of my design and would like to find the best jigged bone sources. Who has the best amber stagbone and I am really looking for a "cranberry" bone and a nice dark hunter green bone with nice jigged pattern Any help is appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Tim, I don't think you can do better than Culpepper/Mother of Pearl Co.

I second that! Culpepper's jigged bone always seems to be of better quality than the rest.

I also get mine from the Mother of Pearl Company, and I've been very pleased. I used to use TKS, but the color never seemed to be the same from order to order. Here is a link to the bone on the MOPC site:
