Gents, the raffle that Brian is referring to is for the 5th anniversary of the Traditional Muzzleloading Association, it is part of a package deal and will be advertised in Muzzleloader Magazine with tickets available similar to the House rifle, it will include that knife a 40 cal Steve Zihn rifle, custom engraved powder horn by Griz and Horbuilder, wovem horn strap by The Weaving Welshman, and Hunting Pouch by Beaver Leather Works (yours truly) most of the items have been finished, should kick off in April and the drawing will be in the fall of this year, a good portion of the proceeds from the raffle will go to funding youth ML programs such as buying rifles and supplies and donating them to directly to camp directors at BSA, GSA, and other non profit youth camps that have a ML program, stay tuned!

I'm planning to buy the winning ticket!

Love the file work, BTW. I'm inspired to go dig out the osage I've had drying for 20 years or so...
