Here is a nice antiqued Southwestern VA/East TN pouch, very primitive with a banded southern horn. The pouch is made from dark brown stained bark tanned deer hide from the shoulder area and a bit thicker than usual. It is about 7 inches high by about 7 wide at the top flaring to 8 inches wide at the bottom and sewn with waxed linen thread as all of mine are. It has a 60 grain powder measure attached to the oil tanned cowhide strap. The strap is adjustable with an iron buckle. The powder horn is 13 inches around the outside curve and has a turned antler spout and will carry the better part of a pound of powder and keep it dry. I like this pouch as its contents are easily accessible. Not lined and has no interior pocket. I have attached a fine long hunter knife in a sheath on the back of the bag. The knife is made from 1095 steel with an antler handle. For sale for $350.
