swordfish bill blanks?

[healeydays]

Hi Folks,

Got an interesting one for you. I came across an old swordfish bill at an estate sale today and picked it up for next to nothing. I was playing with the idea of possibly making a few blanks out of it. Has anyone tried doing it? I'm guessing that I will stabilize the pieces first.

I've been watching this for a while curious to see what would come of the bill. I don't have a clue but would guess it would be some sort of porous bone. Did you cut it to see what's in it and if so what did you find? Thanks
