for the Tennessee Classic
« on: February 26, 2015, 07:37:00 PM »
I made this set specifically for the raffle table at the Tennessee Classic. The set consists of a 56" sinew backed osage bow(50#@26")with snake skin covering, Plains style coyote quiver with a bow case, "coyote face" detachable possible bag and knapped knife with deer leg bone handle(blade by Bill Stockdill)and its sheath on the shoulder strap. I have partially straightened 6 hill cane shafts and I will soon have arrows to complete the set.
 

...detachable "coyote face" possible bag...
 

 

...knapped blade knife hafted to deer leg bone handle...

Thanks guys.
I don't knap. Bill Stockdill(Hickory Bill) knapped the blade and I hafted it to the bone handle.
James, the stick is actually sourwood and it is the stiffener for attaching the possible bag to the quiver stiffener with the leather thongs you see in the pic.

I figured it acted as a stiffener but didn't realize it aided in attachment, it can picture that though. Glad i asked... I really like this Pat, thanks for sharing!

Wow! is right.  Beautiful work, Pat.  If I lived close enough to go, I'd get in on that raffle.
It's hard to make a wooden bow which isn't beautiful, even if it's ugly.
