I Like To Re-handle Knives & Make Sheaths, Bags & Powderhorns

[Pietro]

L-R: On a table w/6" tiles, a Cherokee Bowie, a Cold Steel Trailmaster Bowie I re-handled in Ebony after tossing the issue rubber handle, a found Imperial Bowie blade I handled after adding a brass cross-guard, & an unknown/found Arkansas Toothpick I handled in Ebony - with 3 self-made sheaths (the CS sheath is issue)




Green River Hunter (pattern) blade I handled in Curly Maple and black/red/copper spacers, with self-made sheath




Blackjack Tartan Dirk, self re-handled with spalted Maple




Cold Steel Roach Belly, self re-handled with deer antler & Ebony (I tossed the issue rubber handle)




A San Francisco gambler Bowie blade I handled in Ebony with a brass cross-guard & self-made walnut sheath




A found 11" scalper I handled with Crown Stag




Also, I sew up possibles bags & make powder horns.

BOY ! Have I ever been asleep at the switch !

I have to apologize for not being timely in replying to your post, WH.

That knife is a 5" Green River Hunter (pattern) that I handled in Curly Maple, with red, black & copper spacers.

The plain sheath is one I made from some tanned/dyed leather I have.

I have edited & labelled the pics in my OP - thanks for the heads-up.

Thank you for the information! It looks like a handy camp knife.
