Something Different for Tenn Classic
« on: April 06, 2011, 06:27:00 PM »
I'll be heading down to the Tenn Classic the end of the month.  Whip & I will meet up for the weekend then head off to do a little bow fishing with Don and Skyler.

I just found out that one of my favorite sheath  artists will be at the Classic...Rebecca Parker.  Becca does some amazing Indian/Frontier style quill work on brain tanned leather.  Even though I have several of her sheaths, Becca has only seen my knives in picture.

Here is an early period style neck knife that I just finished for the trip south.  Tea stained bone handle with sinew wrap to hide my pinned tang.  OAL 6 1/2 inches 5160 ground out & finished completely Before quenching.  I then antiqued the blade with Laural Mountain browning solution...wrapping the blade in fabric to texture the steel.  Finally fitting nicely in one a Becca's neck sheaths...tippit

Geez Jeff, that's a beauty!

If you've got any more you need a sheath for, don't forget I still owe you one  ;)  I can throw all my leatherworking stuff in the truck & do it over the weekend if you like.

Oh man, that is beautiful.  Both the knife and the sheath.
