This is my 'knock-around' bag and horn and they have given faithful service for some 20 years
The bag was made out of the leg of a pair of overalls and is a heavy cotton material. The fold over flap is a pocket itself and is used to store valuables such as modern money!!
The main pouch is next and in front of it are two compartments. The top edge of these is the original bottom of the leg and the taper in the leg produces the wider area for the flap.
The white bit holds caps,flints etc and the narrow pocket holds 4 ball.
The shoulder strap was made from the same o/alls as was the strap on the flask. The knife is modern with a ??? handle, made in Canada by 'gh' (?).Originally a heavy table knife.
