Different colors
Mammoth tooth stabilized pair scales, size for pocket knife 3.7 × 1.33 × 0.27 inch +/- (93 × 34 × 7 mm), are a refined fossil handle material created for custom folding and everyday carry knives. These scales are cut from genuine woolly mammoth tooth and display distinctive cross-hatched patterns and natural color contrasts formed over thousands of years. Because raw mammoth tooth is naturally porous, each pair is professionally stabilized using a vacuum resin impregnation process. This treatment strengthens the structure, improves moisture resistance, and ensures reliable performance during machining, shaping, sanding, and polishing.
Key features and applications:
- Authentic fossil mammoth tooth with unique natural patterning
- Vacuum and resin stabilization for enhanced durability and stability
- Sized specifically for pocket knives (approx. 3.7 × 1.33 × 0.27 inch +/- / 93 × 34 × 7 mm)
- Suitable for folding and pocket knife handle scales
- Excellent for scrimshaw, engraving, and decorative detailing
- Polishes to a high-contrast, visually striking finish
- Improved machinability compared to non-stabilized tooth material
Mammoth tooth stabilized pair scales, size for pocket knife 3.7 × 1.33 × 0.27 inch +/- (93 × 34 × 7 mm), offer a rare combination of prehistoric origin and modern craftsmanship performance, making them an exceptional choice for knife makers and collectors seeking truly distinctive materials.
