Blade forged by fellow tradganger Ben Tendick. I have hafted this into a deer proximal phalanx bone with structural epoxy then given it an overwrap of twisted Woodchuck rawhide. Then a coat of West epoxy on the wrap.
  Neck type sheath stiched with a twisted double strand of copper wire then edge laced with doubled and twisted silver wire. Brain tan buckskin used for the liner, fringe and neck / wrist thongs. Thongs are triple braided. Wrist thong has a tooth adjuster, neck thong has two Mountain Lion phalanx bone adjusters and copper cones.
