Alaskan Raw Materials
Everything on this page is an Alaskan raw material. to go to my main raw materials page click below

 

Moose antler
Right and left -moose leg  bone. keep quite a bit on hand trying to promote this. It is great for knife handles scrimshaw art etc

Above wolf bones for knife handles beads etc

$2                             $5                           $10                                  $18
Above Lynx claws
I probably have more lynx claws on hand then anyone in th world. I have been a trapper for 30 years and  know most local trappers and fur dealers. This is a byproduct of the fur industry usually thrown away. I can offer discounts for volume thew huge ones are the size of mountain lion
Lynx bones for beads they are hollow 50 cents each or 10 for $4
Wolf
wolf skulls right--$50 to $100 also have a few fangs--inquire
Ivory
I have both walrus and mammoth ivory. Have less walrus as I am in the interior of Alaska and do not have great northern Eskimo connections. I find much of the mammoth ivory myself so being at the source   means nice price. Some of the more exotic ivory needs I can help with as I have connections with big dealers even if I do not have it in stock. I have the most materials  on hand for artists scrim people necklace makers  etc. Knife makers (the blue scales they seem to all want) well usually when I get it is sold to my regular customers within hours. If you want a lot I can get it from Russia (only 50 miles from Alaska)
Alaska does not have a huge selection of rocks but we have jade gold agate garnets and a few things I don't know even what they are.
Left Nowitna River agate. Found only in Alaska this is a carenilan with mottled patterns (instead of the traditionally known concentric patterns of Brazilian agate) I can sell it in the rough or sliced and polished
left. These are local cohes- dry fungus used to paint on or displays
Left wolverine teeth claws from interior of Alaska
Right otter teeth and jaw I have other animal bones inquire
I have tines butt  ends palms and sides for sale - cannot sell both sides together as a 'trophy' this is for art work
Flint kappers like this part shown above also good for pistol grips and carving
My book is a wilderness survival biography but also has a lot of 'how to' knowledge on tanning gathering identifying material how my art is done etc. It is a good book to compliment my art or to connect to the art and raw materials I sell. Anyone who likes the wilderness my art and the materials I use should enjoy this. After being raised middle class city and raise don Walt Disney I move to the Alaska wilderness to live my dream of being a mountain man I get dropped off with no arrangements to get picked up and walk out almost a year later then build a houseboat to live on
Going Wild
Wolf bone beads silver ends $8
Alaska wolf bones are naturally hollow. Metal ends help stop beads from ever cracking, as well as being decorative.
Wolf claws capped $50

Unsure if I dare offer these. I have lots of capped claws, but can not promise you turquoise or ivory or 'whatever'. If you email me I may or may not have exactly what you want but it might take me half an hour to find out! This then becomes a special order for $30 more. The shop cart is not smart enough for you to write me what your preference is. Never mind it's complicated, trust me. See my ordering page -- 'huge problem' To order this you must be happy with 'a capped wolf claw' for $30 less then a special order. If I get too many puzzled people I will remove this item.
