Have posted this in the reenacting page as well but thought id ask here.
Just starting out and had some questions. Based on the rifle style i intend to build (early or late lancaster) it was suggested to me that the time period that would place me in would be 18-1820. That being said im wondering about a couple things. To my eye the non leather strapped possibles bags and powder horns look the best. The roach belly style of belt knives and the non-pipe style hawks catch my eye the most as well. Would these things fit well within the time period i am aiming to portray?
Thanks for any help
