Reply #31 - Sep 30^th, 2012 at 3:39pm I used no power tools, just gouges, crooked knives, regular knives I made from old sawblades, a hatchet, a hand plane and I guess I did use one power tool in the form of a drill for drilling the whole for the wrist loop. I just alternate between these tools, whatever suits the situation.

Oh, and I would love to see otzis quiver!

If you look through this link, (same as above link,) http://anthro.amnh.org/north you will see that some are round like mine and others are a rectangle, those are likely for being held under the arm, unlike a leather quiver this does not squish down flat and is hard, so it is uncomfortable and cumbersome to hold it under your arm.

Thanks for the link Luke! It proved to be an invaluable source on Mescalero Apache items I've had a hard time finding on the Googles. Here, have a dancing sausage!
