HalleluYAH Shofar 16"-18" - KOSHER ODORLESS Ram Horn Shofar | Smooth Mouthpiece | Includes Velvet Bag, Clean Brush & Guide

Very smooth. Makes a lot of different sounds very easily. Definitely hard to break. Very nice looking and comes with a nice carry bag and cleaning tool.

I ordered 2 Shofars one for me and one for my son. They both exceeded my expectations and are so beautiful. Great quality. My son was able to get sound out of both i'm still trying.. It truly was a victory moment for us both in this season of life.. came with cleaner, spray, instructions and prayer .. So happy I bought these Thank you so much for such a beautiful product

Very happy with the shofar,good sound no smell

FIRST of all, you have to understand how all of this works. I have seen so many negative reviews for things that are just misunderstood. These are horns from animals. They will NOT look like the stock photo. They come in different sizes and colors and shapes. The man blowing the rams horn in the photo is a horn from one animal and they don’t all look alike so please don’t expect the shofar to look like the photo. SECOND, there is a correct way of measuring which is from the mouthpiece, along the outside curvature to the opening. You do NOT measure in a straight light. A 12-18” horn could only measure 8” in a straight line from mouth to end of it has enough curve. Too many people leaving negative reviews because of size and measuring it wrong. THIRD, it comes from an animal. There are some times it does in fact have a smell. Have you ever bought your dog cow hooves to chew on? They smell terrible, especially when wet! My particular rams horn doesn’t really have a smell, but it was missing some of the extra pieces so Amazon sent another one and set up a return and when the next one came, it did have a smell. My advice is to not stick your nose down into it to see if it smells. Lol LAST, I’ve read so many reviews that say they don’t make a sound. So they are returning. I don’t know if they just don’t know how or are getting their first one or what but you CANNOT just pick up a shofar and blow air. It is a hollow horn. There will be no sound, just air. There is a technique to making a sound. It takes practice. You can probably find YouTube videos to help you learn. I can pick it up and blow it with no problem whatsoever but my husband cannot. He’s gotten better with practice but it takes him several failed attempts before he can make a sound and even then he is still needing to try to perfect it. Please do not send these back. I am really afraid that Amazon (not HalleluYAH) takes them back and resends them for the next order. I’ve seen so many people on here say they are returning. My first one (sold and shipped) from Amazon, I believe, was a return. Little tell tale signs. Some lint and little hairs (like pet hairs) on the black velvet bag, literature bent and wrinkled and was missing the cleaning brush. These are heavy duty horns. They are fine to wash. So it was washed up really well. I also purchased a kudu shofar from this same seller (but from Etsy, not Amazon because they were having a sale on Etsy for the exact same thing) and it is actually hand personalized and sent from Israel so it will take about a month to get it but I’m very excited.

First one that came I measured according to their description and the most I could get from the measuring was 13.5” while if measuring correctly it’s about 13”. I ordered 14-16. Also it smelled really bad and the inside of it was very dirty. The mouth tip was sightly damaged as well. Replacement came fast, is perfect in size, quality and sounds beautifully. There is slight smell, but not as bad as the first one. Also I will do the cleaning and hope that smell with be gone. It’s natural so it has some cell from an animal which is acceptable not like with the first one. Took one star off because quality control suffered since initial shipment was wrong size and bad quality.

Nice quality and very pretty

Bought for my classroom to celebrate Rosh Hashanah with my students. It was a hit. My sons blew it and it sounded exactly like it should. The bonus are the pamphlets it comes with explaining the instrument. Sure the smell is like a barn but it’s an animal so it smells exactly as it should. If it didn’t smell I’d worry.

I've tried several shofar's crafted by "Holy Voice" and "ProShofar's", but both of these shofar's crafted by "HalleluYah" have the best polishing I've seen. Beautiful done. However, while the polishing is nicely done on the "HalleluYah" shofar's, what I want is a shofar that has nicely done polishing while also keeping all of the natural Ram horn growth rings and natural beauty intact. HalleluYah shofar's did keep some of the natural growth rings detail, but quite a bit of the natural growth rings were removed. Let's start with the good and the bad specific with the lighter color shofar. I loved the farther twisting of the shofar body which points the opening straight forward, and the remaining natural growth rings, and the polishing work was very nicely done. However, while this shofar was easier to blow, the mouthpiece was defective with a notch/split on the left side edge (deal killer). Additionally, it only measured 18.5" in length, when I paid for a 20"-24" shofar category (This shofar should have been in the next lower category of 18"-20", which was about $25.00 cheaper) Now for the good and bad specific to the darker colored shofar. This shofar was very similar to the lighter colored shofar in regards to the cosmetic finishing. Very nicely done with excellent polishing, all be is not enough natural textures kept intact, but still beautiful and my favorite of the two. The twist of the shofar isn't as much which unfortunately points the opening towards my left. While it would have been nice if the shofar size would have been at the top of the category I paid for (20"-24"), it measured only 19.5", which I do understand is considered 20" in regards to shofar measuring standards. However, this shofar was more difficult to get a good sound from. Positive characteristics shared by both shofar's; Beautiful finishing inside and out No bad smell The pipe cleaner, brush, and bag are very very nice. Negative characteristics shared by both shofar's; The most difficult shofar's I've tried to get a good sound from. At the larger opening of the shofar ends, they have been cut off to be flat and even all the way around the end, which is interesting but I've never seen that done before and you lose some size as a result. Both mouthpieces were rounded so as not to be sharp enough to cut you, but they are still way to thin and sharp to be comfortable against the lips when blowing. Subjective criticism: If you're looking for a basic shofar without any expectations, you may be happy with this one. However, the mouthpiece isn't comfortable and it still remains as the most difficult shofar's I've tried to blow. While these shofar's are cosmetically beautiful, I want a shofar that has all of its natural beauty and growth rings kept intact with only light cosmetic polishing performed for the finish. These shofar's almost meet that expectation, but unfortunately fall short for me. Lastly, there was no certified kosher label affixed on either of the shofar's, which would render it unusable for holy day festivals in many synagogues. Final thoughts: The defective mouthpiece is completely unacceptable, as is the smaller shofar than the size category I paid for. If the mouthpieces weren't so uncomfortable because of being so thin and sharp, all be it not sharp enough to cut, I may have considered keeping the darker shofar. Unfortunately, I will be sending these back and have to consider whether I will try again with HalleluYah shofar's or not.

I ordered a shofar. But the shofar is missing. The parcel only contained a bag and a brush. Please advise.

Comprei este shofar na Amazon e fiquei impressionado com a qualidade! O som é forte, limpo e com ótima ressonância. O acabamento também é muito bem feito. Chegou bem embalado e dentro do prazo. Super recomendo ❤️‍🔥🙏

Good service nice product

The product was slow to come but the seller was very good to deal with and the product when it did come was of phenomenal quality. You get a high quality item at an excellent price point. Incredibly pleased with this item.

Miy bonito Shofar, excelente calidad y sonido perfecto. Este es mi primer shofar y desde el primer día le saque mi primer nota. La forma de la boquilla (mouthepiece) lo hace más fácil de tocar. El olor es muy poco y con la primer lavada con agua y jabón líquido se le quitó un 50% una segunda lavada y estoy seguro que se eliminará casi por completo. Pero es normal que tengan olor, ya que son orgánicos. Definitivo pediré otro Shofar pero de antílope de esta misma marca. Lo recomiendo ampliamente
