<p>[QUOTE="David Askett, post: 13144417, member: 4727"]This item appeared today in a local antique shop. At first I thought it was a bone fid for working with rope but, after a bit of research, I’m now fairly sure it’s a Native American (Plains Cree?) quirt / horse whip. It looks to be made of elk horn and rawhide, and has traces of what may be red ochre paint on it. What do you think?</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]560029[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
