This one for me, and kind of an experiment with quilling. I liked how it turned out and I think it fits in great with my shooting bag. But, I have a ways to go with my quilling, for sure the line work.

The knife I picked up at an antique show, it's an "OVB" and I'm not sure how old it is. Or really know much about it, but it holds a hell of an edge and cuts patching for my round balls quite well! And sure looks the part of an old patch knife.

The brain tan has been dyed with walnut hulls, hence the dark color.

Great colors on quills, you buy them or dye yourself?  have   played with them (carefully) over past few years, just takes practice and patience and lots of both.  Looks good for first time,  line work never tried - figure get around to it one of these days when get all the little cut off ends cleaned up from the last practice  :mini-devil-28492: chrrs

Nice work. I know from personal experience, quilling is tough to do.
