ClemBert: Here's a little secret they don't tell us about - if you put the name of the person you're quoting in the first quote tag after an equals sign, the software will put the name in the quote box.

Doubled down this week and got an Uberti Walker to go with my ASM.

Very Sweet

CGN1771 · March 24, 2010, 12:51 AM

Hello All,
Been a long time reader of THR, mostly the black powder section. I figured it was time to join so I could be in the Walker club. I got my Uberti Walker in the mail today from a trade I worked out last week. Last Walker I had was 19 years ago when I carried a pair in pommel holsters back when I was reenacting as a confederate cavalry trooper.
I know a few members here from other muzzleloading forums I'm on and the Black Powder Revolver message board.
So now to the pics,
Chad

Is that a Randle-made knife in the lower right of the photo?

CGN1771 · March 24, 2010, 01:08 AM

The Bowie is a Whitetail Cutlery which is part of Frost Cutlery, The skinner is a J.Russell & Co. Green River Works buffalo skinner.

I haven't looked at the photograph but if it's a Randall made knife it is a good one. I own 2 of them. I ordered the first one when I was 17 years old at Camp LeJeune North Carolina. Had to wait over a year to get it. I was already in WesPac when he got the order filled. That knife changed planes 6 times and gunships twice before I got it into my hot little hands up around the Rock Pile. I didn't have to wait but about 7 months on the second one. Good steel in those knives. Real good steel....

ClemBert that is a very nice looking WALKER

messerist · March 27, 2010, 05:16 PM

I'd better warn my Mother-in-law in Orlando to prepare for some loud-ish booms in the near future.

TomADC · March 27, 2010, 08:18 PM

ClemBert everyone else post a picture of their Walker on the rug or table, BUT no you have to come up with a magazine type display and frankly I really like it!!
Great job!

mykeal · March 27, 2010, 11:16 PM

The man obviously has taste, even if it might be a bit spicy.

madcratebuilder · March 28, 2010, 07:44 AM

That's a HOT picture!

AZ_Rebel · March 28, 2010, 03:31 PM

I had a piece of leather kicking around that was "distressed" - range marks, scrapes etc. A crossdraw holster of the type that Captain Augustus McCrea used to carry his Walker in Lonesome Dove came to mind as the marks and distess would add some character.

An Oil Finish over a brown dye - Hand Sewn with waxed linen thread in a saddle stitch.

Sewn-on Belt Loop

Some of the marks and creases

messerist · March 28, 2010, 07:13 PM

Great execution on that sheath!

twaits · March 28, 2010, 11:28 PM

Most of you are going to hate this probably. I cut my Walker down to 5 1/2 inches. I like how it came out. I haven't had the front sight reinstalled yet.

Nice carry conceal Walker! Can you get enough leverage to make practical use of that loading lever or do you have to remove the cylinder to reload?

twaits · March 28, 2010, 11:41 PM

I haven't tried it yet. I may have to make an attachment to slip over it for leverage.

For a psychotic moment I thought about sharpening the loading lever and leaving it like this:

Steven Youngblood · March 29, 2010, 07:49 AM

AZ Rebel, very nice job. looks sweet!
