Title: Looking for a favor!
Post by: HntnFsh on April 27, 2015, 07:14:18 PM: If its legal. And I honestly don't know. I would love to get my hands on some bear claws. Not the pastry type either! :chuckle: Might not be anybody that would want to part with some either. And I totally understand that too.

But if anybody has 2 or more they wouldn't mind parting with I would really appreciate it. I made a necklace for my grandson a couple years ago. Nothing fancy. But I did put 2 of my nicest elk ivories on it. And some shark teeth I came across several years ago. He absolutely loves it. Took him clam digging last winter. He was wearing that necklace. And brought me a sharks tooth necklace. I'm not much of a necklace wearer. But I tell you what I wore that one proudly displayed while we dug clams! :IBCOOL:

Anyhow. I though it would be cool if I could round up some bear claws to add to his necklace. He would absolutely be beside himself!
Thanks,
HntnFsh

What a cool offer and what a neat thing to do for him. A few years ago my Dad got a nice Blackie, while showing my kids my youngest daughter(about 9 or 10 at the time) asked "Grandpa do you think I could have just 1 tooth" He got her a tooth and took it to a jeweler and had a silver cap with a loop on top for a necklace. She wore it everywhere and it's still a treasure to her.
