Where to get it????
Thanks Guys

first, u get a really sharp wsk, and snare some cia deer hunters, oops i mean an elk, quarter the guys, im mean the elk, like a deer. and take photos of their legs and arms, i mean the sinews of their legs and arms, oh wait thats right elk dont have arms, only undercover cia agents posing as deer hunters. ohh and u can also whisper stuff to the elk before you snare it, like "you have no reverence"! but what ever u do dont whip ur wsk into a tree.
just kidding . find a deer hunter buddy, or you can go to a butcher shop and get sinews, or if u dont care if there real go to pat catans craft stores.

I'll have to get Cheesel when he isn't looking. I bet that tough Portugee sinew will work fine. Thanks for the tip.

Hey George

The easiest way I find to get alot of sinew fast is to go to a butcher that processes deer and other game animals during hunting season for the hunters. the have to disgard the legs anyay just ask them to save them for you.
If the butcher is cool with it he might even save the back strap.
I usually get in a lot of laegs and back straop and proces them over the years and keep some to test knives out on.

Dog chew toys, it's not top quality stuff but it's cheap and convient.

tried it (not the rawhide shapes, but the backstrap chews)
BUT
seems all the ones available -here- have been --roasted-- as sterilization
they don't strip apart (wet or dry)
& they break like cheap plastic

Bull-sticks seem to have some good fiber
but not much quantity.
But if you can find the full length ones,
-maybe- get some nice -long- fibers

Check with local butchers
especially those who actually cut meat off partial carcasses
they might have backstrap

just a few ideas.........
