Really cool short bow! I like the Runen inscriptions on the back. From what I can make out it says: strike - hard - and - true
I could not read the writing on the top part of the bow only the one straight above the handle and the one on the lower limb  :)

I have made a bow for a friend of mine where I have also used Runen letters for his name and a couple of wild boars painted on from old Runen art work.

Nicely done!

I'm glad you guys enjoy the final product as much as i did completing it!   

Philipp, You nailed it!  Written from top to bottom it reads "may arrow strike hard and true".
