The Emu ranchers (?) haven't showed up at the farmer's market yet this summer, but I expect they will soon. I'll call them tomorrow and ask about their schedule.

Dave, my friend, I really think that you are catching on to this leather thing! That is one FINE piece of work! I wish that someday, you, I, and MtMike, could get together. That would be one helluva session, eh? Hugs to Linda----------

Nice sheath. I've never seem Emu skin before. Ostrich but not Emu. Coincidently as I write this, there is a wayward Emu in my area of CT. I was down getting eggs at the local farm and they had just gotten a call about the Emu terrorizing a nearby dog in its yard.

I guess those Emus can be pretty mean. The farmer mentioned a State Cop that had messed with one and ended up getting pummeled and being out of work for an extended amount of time as a result!

Perhaps a skin may be available soon!
