Maryellen Pratt Hunting Pouch, Billy Griner Horn, Ian Pratt Knife and Brian Barker Measure

This primitive hunting pouch is hand stitched of bark tanned deer hide with remnants of hair on the flap and back. An iron buckle provides adjustment to the strap length. The traditionally styled banded horn by Billy Griner features a single band and an applied horn tip, and is fitted with a separate strap and small buckle. A half tang patch knife by Ian Pratt features a ball starter and a 5/12" blade forged from a worn file, it's rawhide lined sheath is affixed to the bag's strap. Rounding out the set is a simple vent pick, and an antler powder measure by Brian Barker, both of which hang from the strap by strips of leather.
