Is the tote you have repairable?  If the horn is broken you can plane the break flat, epoxy on a piece the right size, shape it and refinish it.  Wiktor's site used to have a page showing how that's done before he took it down, but isn't hard to figure it out.  Here's another site that shows the process -

A better match with the replacement wood would make it a lot less obvious.

If the break is lower, here's a site with a suggested approach -

You could probably have the tote fixed in a couple of hours and be back in business.
