Pipe Tamper Sheath

[Wichoun]

So… probably don’t really need a sheath for a tamper, but winter can be long, so small projects help keep my sanity. Had a few scraps of rawhide and lacing. Hung a few dew claws and barn owl feathers on either side, then hung a single crow’s claw in the center. put a loop on the back to tie to maybe a bag strap.. or something
Ya wouldn't think a little tamper needed so much protection.

Owl feathers may be a Federal felony as owls are a protected species.

Lets not repeat the past problems in reenacting.

I appreciate the heads up nhmoose. I've been doing detailed airbrushing for many years. not easy, even some smaller ones can take many days. even the sheath I've added highlights.

I try to go as real as possible on most things. I just redid on my 25 year old griz necklace. I used real senew and also artificial senew. Artificial is just sometimes just easier. When I make a scalp lock, I've used real hair often. As in the picture below. Starting to redesign my pipe stem. Scalp locks are obviously different from a scalp. I believe the native Americans used real hair on the locks as well. When going to fight/battle, they were to remind the warrior of those back home they fight for and of the ancestors past, and generations to come. But I could be corrected. Horse and buffalo hair took over at some point.

Neet. But if I made it the mice would get it.
