Nice bow  :D
Time, dedication, cuts, tons of broken rock, a wife, and perhaps a few girlfriends are some of what it takes in becoming a skilled flint knapper!!!

Youve been doing real good at turning them over and I see you are doing a great job at trying different styles and working the wood!  Good job bro keep it up ur gonna have a hundred bows in no time!!! ;)

Wow Ken, that bow turned out great!  The full draw/braced profiles are absolutely awesome.  Neat idea for the back of the bow, way to think outside the box.  Great bow man!   :)
