Novaculite knife
« on: October 06, 2009, 07:55:02 pm »
Here's a little knife I put together the other night.   The blade is novaculite and the handle is (I think) a jaw bone from a coyote.  I found it while sang digging waaay back in the woods.
 I'm trading it to a guy at work. He just wanted a point, but I thought I'd spice it up a little. ;D

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

Thanks all!
 Could be a dog Steve.  I remember popping one with a .22 back there last fall and not finding it. >:D
 Bob, I've done fairly well this year. Been sang digging 4 times and dug about a pound dried.
 Destructo, I wouldn't put anything past Eddie.  I seen him try to steal the jaws from a VERY ripe river otter once.  I bet his neighbors never have a dog long enough to get attached to it. ::)

I just can't imagine anybody not knowing what "sang" digging is.
 I guess it's more prevalent around the Appalachian and Blue Ridge mountains. ???
   We call digging Ginseng, "sang diggin".
 I bet Hillbilly knows all about it. :)
