[QUOTE="komokwa, post: 348124, member: 301"]well....I see no Indian design. The scrimshaw is nice, but light. The wolf suggests hunter & not military, as does the style. The screw in the base would have held a ring or finial for the carrying strap. & it doesn't look to have ever been used for power..or shot.
