It will take a while before you can tell the difference between real horn or bone and those that are made of different materials like synthetic or resin. The more you use it the more you can tell the difference in its weight and texture. Sometimes it is hard to say, even myself… some are pretty close to the real one. So what I do is break a bead. If a good job is done on the outside, the inside of the bead can tell you as far as grain, color and texture. I hope this helps.
