Title: New Ball Grip Scalper
Post by: LRB on June 10, 2014, 07:49:45 AM
Just finished yesterday. A plain Jane scalper style with a 8"x1 1/4"x1/8" blade of 01 steel, and a walnut grip with a deer rawhide wrap laced on with deer rawhide thong. There are two 1/8" steel cross pins through the grip and tang under the rawhide. The sheath is of vege-tan leather, welted, and sewn with linen thread having a faux field repair of dried deer hide with most of the hair shaved off, and also laced on with deer rawhide. All lightly aged to look used. Hope you enjoy a look.

Very nice!

Does the belt catcher tab roll over i side the sheath or is that just a tab sewn on to the front? Thx

It is sewn on having a spacer under the tab at the top to make belt room.
