Title: Neck knife and sheath
Post by: hawkshaman on August 31, 2011, 06:05:16 pm

I recently made this neck knife and sheath. It is Texas chert with an ebony handle, hafted with sinew and resin. Sheath is braintan deerhide with size 11 glass seed beads. I've got it on the Trade area if anyone is interested. Thanks.

 That looks nice, what kind of wood is that?

Thanks. It's ebony, not sure if it is Gabon or Macassar. My guess is the first as it is really dark.
