Title: Another Blackthorn
Post by: Jodocus on August 10, 2013, 01:29:06 pm
Nice Blackthorn stave, but with a little deflex kink just below the handle. I made it for someone to reciprocate for a real nice hatchet he gave me a while ago.

68", 72#@30", 25 ounces mass. The string is made from linen and weighs 300 grains. The handle is dyed with walnut pods and the arrow is stained with the boiling. linseed oil finish.

Man I like those bows.  Looks super primitive.  Ever made one out of maple?  Just cut a bit of it the other day.

 Another nice one! Great job! I just broke the bow that I was going to use for hunting this fall ( Nasty finishing accident :o) I was thinking of making a nice natural beauty like that myself. Thanks for the inspiration!

I always love a bow like that.  I thought the same thing about Druid.  Really cool looking bow wood.
