For those of you who appreciate ivory on a knife, the following was posted on the facebook page of the Knifemaker's Guild.
From yesterday: "Ivory in danger. A Presidential Advisory Committee met in Washington today where many are calling for a total ban on all ivory sales within the US borders making no distinction in fossil, mammoth antique or even what species. Several groups including Natural Resources Defense Council and World Wildlife Fund are standing behind this effort. The 6 tons of ivory crushed November 14, 2013 by the US Fish and Wildlife Department got this ball rolling."
From today:
"Ivory Ban - The Presidential Advisory Committee that met 12/16/13 does plan to recommend a total ban of ivory within the US to the task force on Wildlife Trafficking. If you want to oppose that action please email ACWT@FWS.GOV before December 28th when they file their report."
