Frontier Sheath

[DC KNIVES]

Not long ago I was commissioned to replicate an 1860's Soiux Indian knife and the customer decided he wanted a heavily fringed sheath for it.I just finished this for him.It has a veg-tan core and is covered in Braintan deer.The heart concho is 150 year old barn wood, and I used trade beads, tin cones and horsehair.Dave
