All beaded up with nowhere to go (# 2 added)

swp · February 14, 2009, 10:33:00 PM

I made this knife for the knife swap and said I would try to do something cool for a sheath. So I tried my hand at beading and here are the results

...the sheath is rawhide with a buckskin cover, the knife is a helle with a deer jaw bone handle.

I can tell you this "I ain't no Shell when it comes to beading". But I learned a lot and have a cool plan for my second one.

Whataya think?

Ok I finished up the second one today and man 2 sides take a lot longer than 1. I also switched knives due to fit and design issues. Whatya think?

Oh yeah, the second one is a buffalo skull if you couldn't tell.
