Oh JJ , you dont read mi article ! This is not about cut strips ! Esp?ecialy site wall strips . This is about full horns and yes , he have more than 1 m horns !!! Or have last year , vhen i buy about 40 horns .

Didn?t mean the precut strips! They claim on their site to have whole horns of 50 cm to sell. Maybe it means the minimum length.

Next time when I?m in South-eastern germany I could check at their shop what they?ve got.

The photgraphs of your horns bought at dick in the other thread show that they are very "curly". Do you straighten the strips sideways?

Yes , this is minimum size-50cm. This curly horns i buy - because his original beatiful curly - its like antilope , but no a water bufalo ! Like you can see in pictures of cut horn , the other horns are straight - no problem.- Any heating no needed. This horns are from India . Highland horns are from China. Cua horns are from Philipines , another horns in net you can find in vietnam. What is importend is climate and temperature where buls live. Korean masters said - the best horns are from not too hot climate. When you see in Indian W. bufflo pictures inj net - he have same strange curvature horns. From this reason you must personali visit Dicks shop and selected from many horns . I have this lucky chance and i can serching the "right" horn from about 200-300 horns ! Bit like you see in picture selected horns are SUPER horn material mass for minimum money ! Thats mi experiences . I must give a big apologize to Dicks horns , becuase fue weekens ago i mean that was mi worst deel in mi life. Sorry Dick!

I have made four hornbows with the waterbuffalo horns strips that I bought from Peter. No problem with them and no problem with him. That was two years ago, and the next horn strips that I will order will come from Philippines. Peter Cua understands what I need for my bows.

Thats vonderfull Angel. But if i can buy 1 whole horn in 18 euro price and cut from him 4 strips and made 2 hornbows , this is better deeling . If i cant - maybe i order to from Peter Cua , or from Highland Horns , like fue years ygo.

OK, Dusan. Good luck. I must confess I have not the "HornTruth". (':?')I'm still learning. Fortunately we have different options to choose....and different tastes. That's the human nature.

Dusan · Post by **Dusan** » Thu Feb 12, 2009 12:24 am

Thats ok Angel. Tahts only about save money , and chance personaly selected horns. I know that Mr. Hyslop in Highland horn Co. is tru right man , and i believe the same about Peter Cua. But i dont believe that Peter or Mr. Hyslop personali selekted , cutin, and packing horns or strips to post package. This doit some Johny or Georg who never see any hornbow and dont know nothing about, what we needed... If i have chance personali selekted and live "not very long road" (400 km ) to Dick i do it ,thats all.Good luck.

OK Why is there no straight forward response to the question? Where can I get horn in the USA? I mean finished horn such as Peters? Does Peter have a paypal account now or do you still send him a money order? I cant imagine horn not being sold by anyone in the US. If anyone has info please let me know. Thanks

I mailed Mr. Cua and he wished I'd use western union. They charge 10% of the amount you'd transfer. I asked if I coud use paypal, he anwered "we don't have paypal here". I gave up and ordered from Highland.

Thanks Rosa. I think Peter would benefit from Paypal or some other way of payment. I hate western union and Highland dont ship to me. I will have to figure something out. Thanks for your reply

we dont have paypal here in the philipipines
thats right !

a) so aside from using fast western union - (you are buying time here)

b) any " us bank drawn check " in U.s. $
would be okay to accept if you can produce that and send thru registered mail and will consider paid when received - if its a draft . of course there is no rush time consideration here. because its normal mail travel time.

c) other than that you can use bank to bank, that is also possible. called t/t - telegraphic transfer. to the philippines but im sure its going to pass thru U.S. first. please take note if you are not in U.s. !!!! unfortunately, the 'in -between 'bank abroad passing thru them will tend to take out some service charges from that amount before it reach philippines, - thats the problem with using (c)

hope ive clear out some matters regarding sending money here.

xxxxxxxxxx

Peter,
I think some of the people in the forum have high Western Union charges in their countries so that it is not as attractive as other methods.

In Australia, last time I used it, Western Union cost me about $50.00 while telegraphic transfer cost about $30.00. That is in Australian dollars. I would recommend anyone to check out the charges before making up their minds. Even I am not sure from day to day what it will cost. I check each time.

I really really REALLY need to find some horn.

hello again !!!
