I don't know who could be upset with that. I sure know I wouldn't be upset. But I would be happy with about anything.

I do indeed knap some, and I like osage--so I will look forward to your package kid bow.

I agree!! I don't knap but if someone sent me some rock  >:D I'd most certainly guarantee that I'd cut myself trying to learn.
I found many years ago that it is much easier and more rewarding working with those that don't know anything than those that know it all.

If you have me Kid Bow, that gift would make me very happy.  Osage doesn't grow in Minnesota and I have plans to learn to knap.  As said earlier, who wouldn't like that?

I'm heading out Monday across the hills to pick up about 300 pc of back strap sinew to process. Some portion of that is part of my plan.

Sounds like a lot of really nice gifts. I'm working on a knife that I hope to finish up in the next week or two.  I'll probably throw in some turkey feathers too. Everyone can use some of those, right?
