Buffalo bone...Who uses this for nuts and saddles? How is it compared to cow bone? Is it equal in quality and tone? I have also seen camel bone but they are not bleached and have a darkness to them I don't care for. Anyone using this?....Mike

I get mines from inlaidartist and I honestly can't tell the difference between that and cow bone... I mean they're kinda similar creature...
