EARLY American Copper Sockets
Been planning on posting this for awhile and hadn't found the time. This is from the Reader's Digest Book "America's Fascinating Indian Heritage"

Look at the patina on those pieces!
I wonder what stories those pieces have to tell? |

Had the crud for a week so I was laying around browsing trying to keep my mind off how much I have to do. (I learned a long time ago that when I feel like crap what I make during that time is usually crap).
Got this book and when I turned the page I immediately thought OUTPOST. What struck me most was the shape of the big knife on the left. The blade shape is almost exactly like some big table knives I have. Guess form does follow function. Definitely "quality" __________________ Chuck Burrows Hand Crafted Leather & Frontier Knives dba Wild Rose Trading Co Durango, CO chuck@wrtcleather.com www.wrtcleather.com The beautiful sheaths created for storing the knife elevate the knife one step higher.
