Pretty happy how these elk calls turned out. Customer request. He sent me the teeth. Bands are made from 18 gauge sterling silver.

Thanks man! I think I’d sell more if they weren’t so expensive. Haha. It’s more a sentimental heirloom thing. These sold for $175 each. I got quotes as high as $400 to make the bands for me. So $175 is the best I can do with my current jewelry maker.

But yeah, I think they came out awesome.

I just paid 350 for a necklace so 175 is not bad at all for custom work like that!!!

Thanks everyone! I had a band made from one of my dads bulls also. Going to be making myself a keeper call whenever I get some free time. :)

Those things are awesome! Thanks for sharing. You might have just got yourself in some trouble! People spend a fortune on dumb camo, why not buy an awesome custom elk call?

Awesome work @The100road ! Do you have a picture of the back of the band? Is the scene specific to a range?  Really cool pieces, are you able to offer this to more of us?

Thank you! I’ll post a picture of the back of the band shortly. The jeweler sent me a few options and I told her let’s go with something that resembles mountains. I think she nailed it. Customer also requested a matte finish on the bands but I think she can polish them and make shinny if we wanted.

Yes, I can make more. Send me a pm and we can work out the details. Thanks for the interest!
