That is a new one! Nicely pulled off. I really like the handle overlays, adds a nice classic glass bow touch.
"The bow is the old first lyre,
the mono chord, the initial rune of fine art
The humanities grew out from archery as a flower from a seed
No sooner did the soft, sweet note of the bow-string charm the ear of genius than music was born, and from music came poetry and painting and..." Maurice Thompso

clean lookin bow man! Must be the excellent pics that lil sweetheart photographer took!

But why are you building bows, and not out hunting? That big boy ain't gonna trot to your back yard and throw himself in front of the workshop door!
