Not sure who made it but what appears to be "bearpaw" is etched into it.Beautiful heavy duty sheath with nice stitching. Trade for a bow between 45-50#. Could also use cane or bamboo arrow shafts 50# spine. Open to offers. Thanks!

Wicked. Thats cool as heck that the rasp part is still there, kinda like a multi purpose tool. If I was in the woods, I could chop a sappling down with it, mabie use it to make some sparks to get a fire going, dry the sappling out using the fire, rough shape the bow with the knife, rough tiller it with the file, then use the blade as a scrapper to finish tillering and take out the tool marks.    ...(theoretically,  of course, ;D!)
"The way of heaven is like the bending of a bow-
 the upper part is pressed down,
 the lower part is raised up,
 the part that has too much is reduced,
 the part that has too little is increased."
