Those goggles are to prevent snow blindness so the glare on the snow would not blind them. They would rub charcoal on the inside of them or sometimes over their eyes before putting them on. My comanche people would make parfleches. To make our rawhide we would take the hide and rub wood ash into the hair then fold it up with the ash and hair inside and the fleshy part outside. We then would burry it for two weeks then dig it up and take it to a stream. As soon as the water would hit it the hair would all slide off. After that we would stretch it till it was dry. To keep parfleches dry in wet climates covering it with beeswax will keep it from becoming wet and soggy. During rainy or wet days most of us would stay in doors so our things didn't get wet much unless we really had to go out in the dampness. Also most artificial sinew is made from plant fibers that are waxed. Real sinew works better and easer to use after chewing on it and breaking down the fibers first. Those moccasins are the same style that my Tsalagi - cherokee people would wear. With the center seam up over the toes. Ours would come up a little bit higher over the ankles with pointed flaps on both sides. If you boil down the dear toes you can also mix it with hide scrapings and crushed egg shells to make Hide Glue.
From an Appalachian and Cherokee...kinda work the sinew threads in your mouth and they’ll break less often. I chew one while sewing with the previous lol.
Shiyo! Excellent presentation! Beautiful work. That packbasket is absolutely phenomenal! Would love to see more of it, especially how the strapping system was made! Sgi!
Thank you for this video! We are a hunting family and use our harvest for meals. So it's very cool to see that other things could be made from the other parts of the deer. I loved the hollowed out antler for saving my grandsons baby teeth! I need to make some buttons and will start to harvest the deer toes. Saving some deer tails to use in my decor as tassels. Great ideas!
Can someone point me in the direction of where I can find how to properly process the parts mentioned in the video? Like yes I know sinew is useful, but I have no idea how to properly harvest it from the deer, and what needs to be done to it afterwards to make it usable and where it won’t rot when I store it. I’d also like to learn how to process hides.
11:18 "These are deer toes." I'll bet they are actually deer toe nails. Elk teeth are often used for decoration and rattles. Does anyone know whether there is a use for whitetail teeth?
I heard of a man that made a set of dentures out of the deer's teeth. Then, he used the dentures to eat the deer with his own teeth. Weird, but genius at the same time!
It's her expressive eyes that make that grin stand out! Not the value of a lady is in her looks, of course. But I have to admit that an outdoorswoman with um, "well-used" fingernails and no makeup is more attractive than a dozen supermodels! Thanks for the video! My favorite item made from deer antler is my cannabis pipe! 😮
The big advantage of real sinew is that as it dries, it shrinks, and you don't even need to tie a knot when wrapping something. It sticks to itself and pulls together as it dries, making a tight wrapping that is almost impervious to everything- except moisture.
I took a girl bird hunting with me as an observer. As my setter worked and quartered, for several hours, she realized that "work" is involved in hunting. Told her it's called huntING not called getting. She said, oh..hiking with a firearm.😎....later that day, had her try clays....she broke a couple and had fun just shooting. Then she said,"I like the smell of the gun powder.😉👍".
Deer exist all over North America, South America, Europe, and Asia. It is highly likely, if not inevitable, that her ancestors made materials similar to this. If her ancestors decended from Africa exculsively, then perhaps not, but even in Africa similar items could be made from Impala, Kudu, Gemsbok, Springbok, or Eland.
Your statement speaks foolishness or ignorance. Compare two separate, unrelated human-beings on two separate continents and they share on average 99.9% of DNA, the only difference is the 0.1% which allows for variances which show clues to their ancestry. All life stems from the Mother of mankind, Eve and yes it has been scientifically proven. All men and woman today, from every continent across the world share the DNA that was passed down from Eve. To reiterate, your statement that her ancestors did not utilize the many uses of a deer is indeed a foolish or ignorant statement. This is coming from a Tsalagi descendant. I tell you this to give you light, not to insult you or provoke you into anger or hate.🙏🦅
Did you know that the only indians left are the ones that tucked tail and ran from their enemy like cowards? Thousands of braves fought the US Army but they never mention the ones that refused to fight. They never talk about the chiefs that betrayed their own people by making deals with their enemy. They never talk about the chiefs that signed treaties that destroyed their own tribes. Now their descendants blame everyone else for their ancestors being ignorant and unwilling to defend their tribes. Even now in modern times, their chiefs submit to the government and cede ownership of their lands so they can build HUD homes. Its sad that cowards and traitors are allowed to pretend they are heroes.
You could have a tleast cleaned your fingernails!! you took the time to set up a camera and all the other behind the scenes stuff so is no reason to have dirty fingernails !! Nobody wants to see that!!
Then DONT WATCH! Just saying when you are crafting like this... IT DOESMT MATTER HOW MUCH YOU WAS UR HANDS N CLEAN UNDER UR NAILS... everything that gets touched to make anything... Will instantly make them dirty again. Trust me I get it... as a female that crafts like this... I take pride in my nails however ITS MORE TIME CONSUMING THAN THE ACTUAL CRAFT BEING MADE.

As a leather craftsman and bush Craftsman, I really enjoy learning more things that will help me live in the woods.
Thanks for watching!
I completely agree with you and all the beautiful gifts from the deer! Thank you for honoring them the way you do.
Thank you for the love
Y’all are so awesome and kind with your knowledge. Thank you so very much.
I use antler to make tools for flint knapping. Base of the antler for Boppers and the tips for pressure flakers

Great inspiration here! That basket pack is incredible btw
Enjoyed your video really appreciate how you honor the deers life by not wasting any parts
Thanks for watching!
Ive always loved Southern Appalachian Mountains....Very cool Video
Nice video! Thanks for sharing so many other uses for deer.
Can't you make the Y section of the deer antler like a thumb stick?
Hi there, I am not sure what you mean by thumb stick. Thanks for watching!
Really love watching your Classes and Info ....
This is awesome! you should have WAY more subscribers!

And also, those really are deer toes. Deer have split hooves, not toenails.
Thank you for passing on your knowledge to us!
Glad it was helpful!
You have the absolute cutest little grin

Exactly my friend!
Fascia! Thx for your knowledge. Dry freeze or salt brain tan. My MD UWSoM’89
I was wondering if a hat would be possible? Like a bush hat style or even a cowboy hat... be an interesting test
Definitely a fun idea, let us know if you try it!
Wonderful! Thank you very much!
I was in my back yard and I found a antler and looked for stuff to do🤣
They shed their antlers in my yard too. Sadly, they tend to destroy small trees while trying to rub the antlers off!
@@tedpreston4155 they shed antlers in March and april. The tree destruction is during the rut, typically November. Unrelated.
That is so cool , thanks for sharing !!
thank you very much, great information.

Hey!! I just found your channel! Earthskills!!! How are you?
Thanks for commenting!
Just found your channel what to say. WOW.
How do you harvest the deer “toes”?
Soap!!! Soap is one!
I had a random thought, wondering what our ancestors did with deer hide. Now I found this video.
Cherokee is Parr of mom's family tree.also English and German for the most
This woman is my mom if she took one too many hits of LSD and didn't come back from the trip
No disrespect. She is very free spirit and the definition of love in the flesh
I think I'm in love lmao 🤣
I took a girl bird hunting with me as an observer. As my setter worked and quartered, for several hours, she realized that "work" is involved in hunting.

Yum
I need a lady like her
You lost me when you tried explaining 'sparring' 🤣
😻 🦌
I love your sharing! Thank you sistar !
I'm getting some strong "Captain Fantastic" vibes from this video and I love it.
Um it’s not supposed to break Guys
Natalie? is that you?
Wow, you are a very beautiful and attractive woman 😍🌹😘
How does she sound like the most cali vally girl of all time
Like, as if. Lol 🤣🤣
I get that you work with your hands (so do I) but those nails 😐
She obviously needs to use that comb more often on that rat nest of hair.
Lady looks angry
Maybe not be your ancestors but mine for sure😂😂

We're all tribal in our past, and we *all* migrated at some point.
