Improvisied Shelter

So tonight I was thinking on what I could do to improve on my little open face shelter that I came up with last month. When used last, we had some rain, lots of rain and although I was able to close the front in and stay dry I wasn't happy with it. So after thinking about it over the past weeks this is what I came up with. Using a 7x10 and a 7x7 oil cloth, four short poles some guide ropes and twelve stakes. I think this will work.

New Knife Sheath

 When I first received my knife from Ben Hoffman, of Hoffman Reproductions. I had an idea of the type of sheath that I wanted to make for it but, for some reason I ended up making a simple belt sheath. So a few moths back I received my news letter from the CLA called The Broadside, it had a article on daggers, dirks and few knives alone with there sheaths. I like the style of sheath that was shown with a knife on the style of mine. So I sat down yesterday and put together this.
