A new Powder Horn (#23)

[PathfinderNC]

I finished this horn up today (#23) and had intended to sell it, but when I was pounding in the tail staple I cracked the wooden plug! (The staple prongs were too fat, just as I thought!) It was an easy repair but I won't sell it now.
It looks nice on my shooting pouch though

I would buy it anyway! Nice work! Looks like a left carry.

Thanks Dave, yes it is a lefty, which is how I wear mine also (luckily).

Typical Pathfinder excellence. Looks really nice

 

[deerstalkert]

being less than perfect makes it one of a kind coming from your hands!
and I too would still buy it as such!
that is fine!

Don’t admit to cracking it yourself. Create a story to go with it, something like “I came face to face with the biggest black bear ever seen in the Smoky Mountains. Before I could raise my gun to fire, he swung at me with a great big paw and knocked me down over a cliff. I landed right on my horn cracking the base of it. If I hadn’t landed on my horn, I would have rolled right over into the river and probably drowned!”

Or you could just mail it to me. I ain’t above telling a good story especially for something that nice.

I don't think I have ever made anything that is perfect and I would be suspicious of anything that somebody tries to sell me that they c;laim IS perfect. I have two horns now, both plain Janes, and if I encountered this one on a table somewhere, I'd be parting with some silver then enquiring about prettying up the ones I already have. I suppose I should learn how to do scrimshaw.... if only I had the time.
