Does $10 a horn sound reasonable?

You are'nt going to get it any cheaper than that unless it's given to you.That's dirt cheap.It all depends on quality and length.The shorter cow horns will be the cheapest.Your longer[15 to 16 inch outside curve measured no twist bull horns I'm sure he'll want more for].Buy em up.They should'nt hang around long.I'd like some buffalo back leg sinew myself.

Can someone give me a quick lesson in how to tell a good horn from a door stop? At the moment I'll just be using it for tips.

They're all good. Whether you use them for tips, strips, powder horns, spoons, forks, combs, rum kegs or drinking vessels.
