Title: new back quiver for my new selfbow
Post by: Rickd on September 17, 2009, 01:57:54 pm

Worked out a trade with Adam Keiper for this osage selfbow 66" 49#@28" and like this bow enough to make a back quiver to go with it..Made from  saddle tan colored elkhide  and lined in 5/6 ounce veggie leather..I had Wei copy one of my favorite paintings by Kirby Sattler on the quiver body..I`ve also made a sheath and am going to fasten this knife to the quiver strap or thats what I`m thinking..
