Quigley Down Under Package Complete
« on: October 06, 2013, 07:03:00 PM »
Just finished the knife and sheath for my Quigley Down Under package.  Been putting it together since I bought my Sharps 45/70.  I had quillwork for decoration on all pieces.  The knife is 1095 with elk antler.  Enjoy!

Whoa!  Chris, that is one very cool package!

That knife and sheath is right up my ally!  I am a sucker for frontier style, the quill work works on every piece. That elk antler fits that knife perfectly!   Outstanding!

That rifle is a beauty too!

That's real nice. Have to ask though, that's not a live primer in the case is it ?

Good question.  I pulled the anvil out before replacing the primer.

You said the set us complete.  I'm assuming your Crazy Cora wasn't available for the picture?  All look awesome.  A Sharps is on my bucket list.     :thumbsup:

That's a great outfit, love that quillwork. Dying those quills has me stumped.
