Finally Finished My Fish Leather Back Quiver

Recommended Posts

I made this quiver and matching arm guard and donated them to the live auction at the 2016 United Bowhunters of Missouri Festival coming up February 5th-7th. Hopefully they will make the club a little money.

I had the quiver done last week but I needed a decent weather day in order to carve the deer antler fasteners for the strap. Momma insists that I do that activity outside so I needed the temperature to go up enough so that my hands wouldn't freeze.

The body of the quiver is made from 8 oz. bison leather, the trim is deer and the bling was done in carp skin leather. Everything was sewn by hand using artificial sinew.

Here's one with the matching arm guard.

This is what it looks like when it's worn.

This is a closeup of one of the deer antler fasteners. They don't look like much but they take a while to make.

Hi Darren,

That is the most creative use of dragon dick I have seen in a while. What did you use as a top coat to make it lay down so well?

I used no coatings or finishes. The pieces are glued down with contact cement and the edges are sewn down.
