Nice looking bow. I have one very similiar about half finished. I really like the slim levers on yours. Also, not to offend you but that style is a Mollegabet not a Holmgaard. I think most people generalize the two styles. You have a fine representation.

hey jonw i made it out of a pic off of the traditional bowyers bible. i believe the only difference between the holmegaard and the mollegabet is the holmegaard is wider at the beginning of the narrow upper and it narrows at the tip and the mollegabet are just the opposite like mine, now that i look at it. its good to learn. ive got over 500 shots already on "p'catewah posetha" (black cat).
