Well I could tell this wasn't your first camp out! Is this for you as part of your regalia?

Looks great, you got me to look up bear claw necklaces. Some very old ones still exist and yours looks like them. Old or new, your skills and attention to detail are to be commended k snow. Thanks for sharing with us

Keep. WI law says I can't sell claws unless they are attached to a hide, as near as I can interpret what I'm reading. Not sure if that includes claws in finished goods or not.
