Beautiful bow!
Are the tip overlays glued over the rawhide?

Thanks all.

Correct, the overlays are glued over the Rawhide.

Better watch that Manny. That rawhide will separate from itself and your overlay will go with it. Wood on wood is really the only safe bet for overlays.

Hmmmm, interesting.

I've done that several times and I never had a problem,...let's see what happens.
