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.
