Welcome to my Blog! My name is Darrel Lang and I specialize in the Replication of Leather shot bags & Accouterments made in the colonies by the harness and saddle maker of the18th century. All items are hand sewn using waxed linen thread, dyed, then treated with neatsfoot oil & bee’s wax. The leather used is of veg. tanned cow hide 2-3 or 4-5 oz. weight.

New Year
Starting out the new year on the right foot. Spent the day out with a friend doing some shooting and spending time in the woods. Need to work on the long shot, 50 yards and under not a problem, it's when it gets out pass that I need to work on. Oh well, that just means more time spent on the range.

Large Knife & Sheath
This is a large style trade knife, so I made the leather sheath a little stiffer by adding a thicker welt and also making it a little wider to prevent it from bending when the knife is removed from the sheath.It is made to wear on the left side under the belt or sash, I added a leather belt loop to keep it in place when wearing it under the belt, a tie can be added to tie it in place when wearing a sash.
