Friends, in the conflicts between whites and Indians, the most common trophy taken was scalps. In many cases, particularly on the Indian side, fingers were taken too. I'm planning a necklace of at least 4 fake fingers. This one is made of buffalo rawhide with sinew balled as a tip, the fingernail is a sliver of deer antler, the joint wrinkles are done with a razor knife. I have red wool flannel AKA trade cloth to wrap around the protruding piece of deer tine. It's not there as a "bone" but glue in to provide a stem to drill a hole for a thong.
