If anyone thinks scrimshawing is easy, let them try it before making a comment. That lettering is excellent.

This will be paired with an appropriate styled shooting bag and of course, my TVM E. Virginia flintlock rifle.

Great horn William!  It is a real looker.  Do you have a special reason for commemorating that particular battle of the Revolutionary War?  I had some kin that fought in that battle.

Yes, my 6th great grandfather was a spy for the North Carolina militia and his brother had a homestead south of Kings Mountain. I'm not sure of the role he played in this battle but the circumstances are too great for him and his brother not to have played a part in the battle.

that is Way Nice!!!   Yes!  The "Overmountain Men",..Decided if there was going to be any "march his army over the mountains, hang their leaders, and lay waste the country with fire and sword." Kind of things...Going to happen,..well then the " Overmountain Men" would be the ones who did it! And saved the Southern Colonies,.. and perhaps the Revolution while they were at it .......
