***Lets see your Patch knife/Neckers***
« on: September 11, 2008, 07:35:00 PM »
I am planning my next knife project which will be a Muzzleloader Patch/neck knife for a long time friend & mentor to celebrate his 79th B-day. So it's got to be special! 

I plan to use stained figured Maple and try some simple wire inlay.  And make a primitive sheath using cones, horse hair, fringe and all that "stuff".       :help:  

Show me what you got!!! 

I need some inspiration !!!!

Thanks Steve

Here's my latest patch/neck knife. The handle is polished bone, the sheath is rawhide and brain tan.

Hey Ron, is that a poured pewter guard? She's a beauty!

Just finished a small flared guard necker in Lacewood.  It fits nicely in Rebecca Parker's brain tanned quill neck sheath...tippit

Wow, that is a really very nice knife!  I love the color combo in the quill work!  Is that sheath lined with a heaver leather or only the brain tanned leather?
