El Destructo:
OK....so I have gotten run astray again!!! Somewhere along the Line "Cowboy".... through this Indian way off Track!! Here is my Second Knife in less than three Weeks....and I still haven't picked up my Cupids Bow to work on it ::)
This Knife is Cholla Handled like My last one I made with a Birdseye Pommel....the Blade is Georgetown Chert...This is a Big Knife....it is 12 inches overall....the Blade is 6 1/2" long and 1 5/8" wide...the Blade was set with Pitch and Charcoal....and hafted with Gut and Hide Glue....these are so much fun to make....I think I am going to make a Tomahawk and a War Lance next!! >:D
huntertrapper:

El Destructo:

Don't think that there is too much of it growing up there....Frank....but I bet I can locate some more...and maybe trade you for some Fish Skins or Fur of some kind....
