I like it! I like the knapped point idea! The quiver looks very rustic, good choice on leathers!
Well done !!

Well done! nice first go.

Pointer for the next one. invest in an edge rounder/beveler tool and a slicker. Round/bevel the edges of any raw edge such as a strap and then dye the edge and burnish it first by dampening it with water and then with beeswax, makes a neater edge and keeps the edges from looking ragged. My favorite slicker tool is a peice of deer antler with various size grooves sanded and polished into it
