Native American Knife

#1 Post by Jock » Sat May 01, 2004 8:20 pm

Bought a Plains Quiver from "Barb" from Tradgang, I'm completely overwhelmed by both the workmanship, oops, "workwomanship", HAHA, and the primitive native knife and sheath she "threw in".
Thought I'd share it with my Aussie cousins.

Absolutely beautiful Jock. :shock:

Can understand your wanting to show others and a big thank you for showing us. A lot of work and skill gone into making that one.

Gundy,
Have you read the Book, "Liver Eatin Johnson/Crow killer", it's the book that the film is based on, first seen the film in 73, awsome, still watch it at least a couple of times a year, I've got copies in Beta, VHS and DVD.
Yes, you could say it's one of my favourites, HAHA.
