Craft grade and number 2 quality warthog and hippo tusks.  These lots are heavily discounted dur to natural imperfections, making them a cost-effective choice for artisans who cut, shape, and work around flaws.  You are buying the exact warthog or hippo tusks shown in the product photos.  Because these are discount grade, every piece contains imperfections such as: Deep cracks or split lines, hollow sections or holes, dried-out textures, chips, cuts, or minor breaks - Please review all photos carefully and read individual lot descriptions before purchasing.  Don't let the imperfections fool you--these pieces still contain high-quality material perfect for projects where you only need smaller sections of ivory:  Excellent for cutting down into custom knife handles, spacers, and scales.  Great for etching onto flat, stable sections of the tusk.  Ideal for beginners practicing relief carving or making small pendants.  Perfect for repair work, accent pieces, and rustic displays.  If you prefer premium, individually selected tusks with fewer flaws, we offer a wide selection of top-tier material sold individually, in 2-piece lots, and in 5-piece lots.  Explore our premium options in our Ivory for Carving collection.

The flat spot is natural.  It occurs when the warthog is chewing food and the lower tusk sharpens itself on the upper tusk during the process of chewing.
