Not yet. I have a small deer hide that is raw hide right now. I havent tanned it yet. I'm not sure if i want to wear it around my neck or attach it to my bag yet. I think i'll use the hide to come up with several options. Any suggestions? 1770-1790

That's a dandy little knife ya put togather Hota. It would look real good on your bag strap. I have a hard time having a knife dangling from around my neck. I gets in the way a lot of  the time.

Nice work there. That'll make a fine patch knife.
