Beaver Tail Pouch by Grant Davis of Utah

I do a lot of presentations at schools on both the Western fur trade and the colonial times.  The beaver tail pouch is to use to display to the kids what a beaver tail looks like.  The beaver was trapped and tanned by my friend Kent Klein.  It is constructed of brain tan leather with a bark tan strap.  The antler measure on this one throws 70gr of FFFg.  The buffalo horn was built by me as well.

Hunting Pouch by Grant Davis

This pouch was completed recently for a friend to give his adult son to accompany a squirrel rifle he built for him.  It is constructed of 3-4oz vegetable tan leather and dyed in walnut dye.  The antler measure throws 32gr of FFFg.  The bag axe was acquired by my friend from Jim Webb.  Jim says that it is intended to be hafted in the woods with a green stick.  Thus the absence of a handle.  There is an open space for a handle in the sheath if one is desired.
