A new pouch

Post by Shadowhawk »

Made a belt pouch over the Christmas break, to hold the stuff I actually NEED to stay alive in the woods, should I lose my way (or just stay there longer than planned, which is more likely). Contents to be revealed when I get around to describing my current kit. Originally had a wooden rune button as the closure, but the star just looked so much better.

Great work! That star looks real good, it's cool how you used it as your closure.

Hmmmm. May steal your idea for using my bronze star as a closure. Nice pouch.

Looks really good. I think I know where my star is going when I get my hands on one, I never thought about that.

Looks great! Really like how you used the star.

Great idea with the star.
In the darkest part of Sherwoods glade, in the thickest part of the wood, there are those who say, can still be seen, the ghost of Robin Hood.
