Longhunter Horn & Bag Set







Here is a cute bag that I used a heavy antique patina on. Made of a heavy tent canvas, and a bark tanned flap, The horn I carved along with a powder measure and a hand forged vent pick i made many years ago. I also attached an old blue padre bead with rawhide thong on the flap. I also hand forged the rings. This bag I really put a lot of hand made items into its creation,
