Black Locust Recurve
« on: February 13, 2018, 10:52:37 am »
Hello,
I finished this bow last october and since then it s one of my favourite bows, smooth to draw and very fast. I treated it with a selfmade sandalwood stain,which combines very well with black locust in my opinion

Some facts about the bow:
Lenght: 63"
Weight: 15oz
Drawweight: 40lbs@28"
Finish: Sandalwood-stain, shellac, boiled linseed oil

Lovely, like the horn on the curves!  Why does that look yellow like Osage is that dyed or a normal color of BL?
