Nice job Jeff, cool bow and the fuming looks great.
That big knot would make me nervous ... , but obviously everything is fine. Congrats.

Another dandy Jeff.Nice work.

Love that one mate. Great job! 

[Yorec]

Definitely beautiful. I particularly like the contrast of dark wood with light grip.
Wish I had BL growing around here!

[osage outlaw]

Great job working around that knot.  Beautiful bow

[M2A]

Looks great! Fuming sure does darken bl up, on my long list of things to try someday. That's some knot you had to work with but full draw pic looks great. Mike

gfugal, at any given time I've got 3-5 bows in the works. I always have to have one to work on cause it's my primary stress reliever. I really like giving them to people who will use them.

Simson, the fuming really does wonders and it's pretty easy to do. The hardest part was finding 10% ammonia, but I finally found it at a local mom/pop hardware store.

I really appreciate all the kind words guys.

That looks great Upstate! Love the fumed look on BL and your light handle really matches the dark fuming job! Just finished a fumed BL recurve myself and I must add that normal household ammonia works fine too. I use that for my  fuming and get about the same darkness as yours on BL in about 4 days

That's a great looking bow!  I love the bend and the way you did the antler tip overlays.  Great looking recurves!

[upstatenybowyer]

Thank you both.  That's good to know about the ammonia Leon, I look forward to seeing that BL bow of yours
