Really nice work Your wife does. Used to use the Trappers basket back in the late 70's-early 80's for everything from walking the trap line to Boy Scouts...Brings back some memories

Thanks Jerry!  Glad you like the quiver...I will let Amy know!

Below is a pict of the quiver before the stain.  I don't think we took a pict of the finished quiver.  She will be making another quiver soon...I'll post a couple picts of the weaving process.
   


ohma2 - I'll check with Amy regarding incorporating a flat side...I would think that she could put in a flat side durng the drying process.

Take care,
Dino

Hey killir duck-

The quiver is complete and will be headed your way in tomorrow's mail...we hope you like it and it provides many years of use!  I threw in a bunch of primary turkey wing feathers and some additional info on the quiver.

Cannot wait to see those knifes in person!  The picts you sent me look awesome!!  And you are very generous by including sheaths too...not expected.  Thank you very much!!

Take care,
Dino (and Amy)

Some really nice work there. Makes me want to come up with stuff to trade for one of them, just getting into this hobby of bow making and related activities. But at some point in the future I may talk to dinorocks about one of these nice quivers.

WOW...My wife Amy just gave me a beautiful handmade knife from NeolithicMan for my recent B-day...this is a knife she traded for a quiver she made.  She has had the knife for a while...I'm surprised she kept it a secret from me for so long.    Just wanted to thank NeolithicMan (John) again and show it off with a couple picts!  He even made the sheath!

The Wife (Amy) is some kinda talented!
And that knife is gorgeous.

Amy asked me to make you a patch knife with a more primitive look. Went with a peened look for the pins and a squirrel skin cover for the sheath... wasnt quite sure what makes a sheath primitive so I made it furry!   :D

Amy is a sweet woman and makes a great quiver! I still have to make a better strap than the twine Im using now and put a piece of sheep skin in the bottom and then I will post a few pics. October first can't come fast enough!!!!
