The beaded knife sheath serves both functional and artistic purposes. Functionally, the sheath protects the knife blade from damage and provides a secure and convenient way to carry and store the knife. Artistically, the intricate beadwork and quillwork showcase the skill and creativity of the artis and can reflect the cultural heritage of the crafter's Native American community. Crafters typically create beaded knife sheaths using small beads, often made of glass, bone, or metal. They weave or sew these onto a base material, such as Deerskin leather or fabric.
This Knife Sheath Quilled Panel measures 11.5 inches long not including the bottom tassel. It measures just about 5 inches wide. One of a Kind!
