Pouch with Mark Ewing banded horn

This bag/horn set is a collaboration between myself and horner Mark Ewing.  The pouch is made from cowhide and pigskin and has fringed welts and a hemp lined flap.  The strap was made by Kris Polizzi and adjusts with a steel buckle forged by William Bisher of Black Turtle Forge.  The banded Carolina powder horn has a black walnut plug and an applied antler tip.

Shot pouch with rolled bindings

This bag was featured on the Contemporary Makers blog (http://contemporarymakers.blogspot.com/2013/04/hunting-pouch-by-eric-ewing.html).  It has an inside pocket and all of the edges are rolled.  It is aged and dyed a rich brown color.  The flap is lined with ticking.

Here is a larger version of this bag.  This one has a gusset for more capacity and a bridge connecting the flap to the body.
