I would take about anything that someone made me. I don't think I would enjoy a turd  :o. As far as bows go, I can see giving a stave, I would love a stave if I was short on wood. I would never turn down Osage. I am currently sitting on 3 boards, a juniper stave, and a hole in the limb Osage. Knives are just fun. I never thought I would enjoy it as much as I did. Now I have to make a sheath.

Im thinking a quiver... im in the process of brain tanning a deer hide right now. I hope it comes out ok. I hope my recipient could use a quiver... hes kinda a knife guy from what I gather.... but im not so good at knives, especially compared to him. It will be a quiver that can be carried as a back or side depending on how he wants it t be carried. Also for target shooting it has a side stake that jams into the ground to hold the entire thing straight up so you can just grab the arrows with out any awkwardness.
Tread softly and carry a bent stick.

I have tied some flies that should work in my guys local waters. Working on a knife(s) because I wanted to be like all the other kids! A few raw materials for knife and bow building and maybe a home made set of arrow heads... still room in the box?! Ok, some feathers, some knapping material, a knapping tool or two... Bone?... yeah now some bone

Well I guess since everyone else is making knives.....   Lol. I was actually thinking of making a knife myself. I have one started. I'll post a pic of it when I get a chance.

To whoever got my name, I'll be happy with whatever you send. A knife, a tomahawk, a bow, a quiver,  some arrows, raw materials, or anything else you might want to send. I'm not picky. I mostly make bows and an occasional knife. I haven't made any arrows yet, but I will one of these days.
If you never have time to do it right, you'll always have time to do it over.
