Side Quiver and Tomahawk Sling Set-UPDATED PICS

4est trekker · March 26, 2011, 05:31:00 PM

Here's a set I just finished up. The side quiver is a simple pattern of burgundy latigo with a wax finish. The arrow bed and opening are lined with sheepskin. The flaps are held down with brass Chicago screws and can screwed together to convert it to a quasi-back quiver. The tomahawk sheath/sling is for a hawk I got in trade made by Tom McGinnis at Ozark Forge. It's made from a farrier's rasp. I cleaned up both the finish and lines considerably and gave it several soakings in a vinegar/lemon juice solution. Thanks for looking!

Beautiful, beautiful work! How about another pic with you wearing them?

That's some beautiful work!! Did you ever post up how to make the sheaths for your "toothpick neckers"? I have a little Browning knife that would make a wonderful necker and I would like to use your design to make a sheath for it if you wouldn't mind.

Love that Hawk and case. Anyone know a good book or video on learning to throw them?

Thanks for all the kind words, folks.

I'll snap a picture soon of the whole get-up as it's worn.

A couple folks had asked to see the hawk sling as it is worn. So, here's a few pics from a recent day in the woods with the hawk sling and my shot pouch style quiver. I posted a couple pictures of that, too, for reference.
