here is a close up of the painted flap

This is a sheath designed for an original old south weastern knife. I can make traditional sheathes in any number of styles and finishes,
if you need one, dont be afriad to inquire.

more custom sheath work

I also make custom leather for knives in traditional styles.

I have posted up a few new bag pictures in the "consigned and sold" image gallery...they are of a few pouches Ive made or sold recently.
I will be posting pictures of a few more and some sheathes etc here real soon too....comments and questions are appreciated....
sorry Im still so slow on the board here, but I hope you understand how busy I have been...sincerely

heres a canvas double pouch I made for an article in my Muzzle Loader column.

heres a pouch made from a boot. the small horn has a real raw hide repair to a crack at the base (oops!)
and a bee hive honey dripper turned plug.

heres a pouch I consigned to Track of the Wolf.

The autum hunting season is nearly here, and Im making up bags just in time for it...consignments actually...but its neat to be making a traditional bag that is soon going out in the field just in like the old days. Its pretty nice stitching up a bag with that in mind. This one is another Pennsylvania folk art bag and it seems to still be a popular style. Even though I have made several of these and have the pattern down pretty well, theres always room for an improvement here and a refinement there...this time a request for an inner pocket and a sleeve to hold a short starter were requested.

Well....I have been totally consumed getting ready for the CLA show...it has really snuck up on me even though
Ive been getting ready for it for months..I hope to get half of what Im planning done ready in time...but I have my
doubts. Loooks like the show is a sell out, and should be a really good one, even though its coming way too fast,
I guess I cant wait for it....
