Common item at the fur sales especially OTC. What you paying?
Used in native crafts.

Dang it! I knew that somebody out there would have a use for all of those porcupines that I've shot. :bash: :bash: All this time I've just been leaving the hide and guts for the coyotes.

Now I'll need to go out and get a few more porcupines. This sounds like a job for the 375 Ruger! :chuckle:

Lots of people use the hairs for fly tying also. Makes great fly's
One touch of nature makes the whole world kin.

I have about 1 1/4 oz, about 8inches in length. How much would that be worth? I don't know if I want to get rid of it, but might if the price is right.

Man, I gots to start popping those things.  They've been hell on the trees this spring...
Of sorrow and sickness I've known on my way,
But I'm old and I'm nervis,
I'm cast from the Service,
And all I deserve is a shillin' a day.

I'd guess $25 bucks if the prices are what they used to be. :twocents:
