belt ax/ tomahawk carrier made by Jerry Rice
« on: September 10, 2020, 10:27:06 PM »
It isn't often that the excellence of a hand crafted woodsman tool is matched by the excellence of the makers character and measure.
Jerry Rice and I have become friends and I'm extremely proud to call him so. He's struggling with some family health issues and without disclosing personal details the Rice family receives my prayers. Somehow he found the time to make this item for me, an ax carrier which exceeded my expectations. From the small craft detail to the fit of my ax in the carrier Jerry completely captures the spirit and look of the period accoutrements we here all love.
Anyway here are a few pics, hope you enjoy them, by all means send prayers for the Rice Family.

He's quite the guy, that's quite the ax, an a super job on the sheath Jerry.

Prayers headed his way.

That’s an awesome piece of gear!  I really like all the little details, and the color is great!

Great carrier.  Need to make something to carry mine and I like this design.  How is it worn?

I was aware of the issues for Jerry, and was surprised to see this fine sheath.  He did you right.  It's a beauty.   God Bless,   Marc

It's deployed on an adjustable leather strap, across the body just behind my hunting bag
