The Wasteland Crow Collaboration

[NoahL]

Hello everyone,

For the past several weeks I have been working on a collaborative project with a bladesmith by the name of James Helm (who generally goes by the username Stormcrow) in which he would forge two neo-tribal style blades and I would make an apocalyptic leather carry system for them. Well, the set is complete and information on how to make it yours is at The Wasteland Crow Project Blog if anyone is interested. The leatherwork is all done in 7-9oz horsehide, with the exception of the small piggyback sheath which is 5-6oz horsehide. All of the stitching was done by hand with hemp thread, and all of the hardware is brass I antiqued with the process described in my tutorial I posted a while back.

Here are a few pictures of the completed set:

And here are just two examples of carry methods, the back mount and the baldric (of course you can tie it down with paracord, use the loops on the back to mount it to your belt, or come up with your own method):

Thanks for looking!

That is some fantastic work, everything from the color scheme to the way it's carried.

Awesome.
