Presque Isle 5th Annual Traditional/Primitive shoot

<< < (5/19) > >>

 Hawk, I've got a real pretty one I'm bringing to the Classic John Pruett made. Is John still coming?

CHA-CHING:
Eddy, I have a small one that I carry sometimes, probably more for decoration than any thing else, I made a very nice handle out of hickory for it and did a little carving on it also, but I got it from John about 10 to 12 years ago. but I need one to throw at those big hunks of logs, not the small ones , like 10 ft diameter .  I talk with John at least once a month, so I'll call him and ask if he is still comming to the Classic. I think because of his finances he probably need to sell some of his bows and etc. I wish that he could come to these different shoots around the country, he has so much talent ,that most of us just stand amazed what he can do with so little. Chris , the one in Ryan's post that made him a knife and spike hawk also made me two mountain folding knifes that I wouldn't trade or sell . he also made a quiver out of birchbark that I will bring to the shoots that you will droll over, I did. I started out in my adult life as a journeyman tool and die maker and automotive engineer, I know how to design and build stuff, but would trade that in a minute for the talent that I've seen in my travels to these wonderful shoots.

_Jon_:
If Pappy has room I'll be headed that way again this year. 

I need to talk to him about it this weekend.  :)

Ryano:
Charlie that's a elm bark quiver not birch.....  ;D I actualy have a nice stash of osage staves here seasoning now, but there not quite a year old yet. I'll make you a bow like Gregs some day I promise but it may be a year or two. I actualy made the knife and hawk myself with Chris's help Charlie. See my thread in the campfire section.  ;D

CHA-CHING:
Ryan, Yup I checked out Bob's hawk too, I really like the Spike Hawk  and the knife, like the thread said he can't wait to see it finished. The Spike Hawk looks like it will cut the sticking in half because of the spike on the other end... Now were talking....

Eddy just forgive me for saying it was  Birch instead of Elm, your still going to just love it... Charlie
