Price: $35.00
Description: This 18" x 14" throw pillow features a rainbow trout; it's stuffed with small scraps from my other projects--I use everything I can! Because of the stuffing, it does weigh a few good pounds, and so isn't your average down pillow. Also, it's a little rough around the edges, literally speaking, since fabric is not one of my fortes, and it's hand stitched. Still, it's a nice piece, and would make a good decoration.
Price: $20.00
Materials: Deer antler, wooden bowl, deerskin

Knife length: 14"
Sheath length: 11"
Description: The knife measures 14" long and is made from deer antler and a cow bone blade, with a bit of deerskin wrapped around the hilt. I left it relatively plain because the contour and color of the antler are wonderful all on their own, and I wanted to highlight that natural beauty. The sheath is deerskin with coyote fur and a secondhand wooden deer charm, and it is 11" long not including the two deerskin belt loops.
Price: $90.00
Materials: Wolf bone, water buffalo horn, wolf legskin and claws, acrylic paint, deerskin, artificial sinew
Knife length: 13 1/2"
Sheath length: 12 1/4"
Description: This is probably one of the best knives I've made! I started with a wolf leg bone from Alaska, which I painted black with a small wolf's head and white markings on one side. I added a black water buffalo horn blade, and wrapped the hilt in black deerskin scrap. The sheath is a uniquely colored hind leg skin from a wolf, black with white toes, with all claws, and a black deerskin back, as well as braided artificial sinew belt loops. This is absolutely a one of a kind piece; it will NOT be duplicated.
Price: $200.00
And, as always, word of mouth makes the world go 'round--please do pass this on to anyone you feel may be interested. Thank you :)
