The 3 ice giants in Everfrost don't seem terrible for this, maybe 1/10 drops. While mistmoore lists alot, i tried clearing the entire zone and some repops and saw nothing.
So the item itself is no longer used in tradeskills, however, you can get a tribunal priest (aka barb shaman)to imbue your ivory into an item that IS used in tradeskills.
Sooooo I was checking out items of loot for uses before selling to npc to clear bags and came across this item. I saw it said as mentioned above (as of Sat Jan 7th, 2017s updated info above) .... "This item is no longer used in tradeskills. Convert the item to get a tradeskill usable item."
ummm exactly how do we do that?
For curiosities sake I tried selling to npc and rebuying it back to see if it was as simple as that since no post mentioned anything about how to "convert" it and neither did the item description above. It was still the same item with same tag when I rebought the item.....

TY for the info .. I tried finding out when the maintenance patch was gonna be in march on that linked site and it appears they did a minor maintenance on something " test" related on 2 march that was mentioned but guess im not very good at navigating that site as it was only thing I found. Any idea if that was the patch that's supposed to fix the ivory and other things from saying no longer trade skill useable and convert message, because item I have still has same message on it. guess I will hang onto it a bit longer and see if it gets converted back to trade skill or if gets rid of the convert message.

I believe the fix for this will be in the next patch.
Ivory is also a very rare drop off the Crystal Spiders in the Thurgadin mines. More often than not, they drop nothing, but at least they aren't poisonous.
Also, Ivory drops faily often from Skulking Brutes in Warslik Woods. They are great solo xp, and they never train. If you need Ivory or easy solo experience between lvl 25 and 30 try out the Skulking Brutes in Warslik Woods. They are in the tunnel system that leads to Dalnir.
I got this drop from a barbed Succulent in The Overthere. From all the other posts, this looks like it drops almost randomly. Sold mine for 6+pp to an indifferent vendor.
Ivory also drops periodically off the evil eyes in the Beholder Maze (Gorge of King Xorbb). I got mine off Lord Syviil, an evil eye that ranges from lvl 19 - 22.
Ok, from what I was told by my trade skill mentor, imbued armor and jewelry was added at the time of the Kunark Expantion... What does this mean to us? Well it means there are certain mobs who drop ivory, And you can buy it in Kunark at two different vendors. One is in Lake of Ill omen (never been to that one so I can only tell ya what I was told) hes out by the windmill. The other one (I've seen it here) is in West Cabilis near the enterance to warsilk woods... he sells ivory weapons, Ivory this, ivory that... but most important at the moment; ivory! My solution may be kinda inconviant but it works... I have a barbarian in Halas who needs the ivory, and I have a lizard in Kunark who is not Kos in Cab. So, I either get one of my guildmates or my friends (I have a friend who's bound in lake of ill) to port to tox or North K and pick up the money, then take it to my lizard who buys the good and then gives them to the courier to take back to my Barbarian. Just food for thought.
Side note: it also drops off ice giants in Ever frost and Perma
Note this information is incorrect as of 03/17/2005 Checked all merchants in West Cab after patch and only one merchant was selling ivory weapons but was not selling "ivory".
