A couple of arm guards I just finished
I finished these arm guards yesterday for a couple of friends. Now I get to make something for myself!
Both have a backing of vegetable tanned cowhide. The one on the left has a facing made from elephant ear leather and deer hide trim. The one on the right has a shark skin facing with elk hide trim. Both arrowheads are made from ostrich leg skin. I carved the lace hooks out of deer antler and sewed everything up by hand using B-50 bowstring material and artificial sinew. I sewed in a little extra mojo into each of them to bring these guys success this fall. No charge for the mojo option!

Love those,great job
For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Those are nice. No telling what you could charge for that mojo. That stuff is hard to come by around here
Re: A couple of arm guards I just finished
Above and beyond expectations as always! Beautiful work out of some unique stuff.
