*STAVE 1 AND 2 ARE NOW SPOKEN FOR.* * STAVE 3 IS NOW SPOKEN FOR. *--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I got some more osage staves for trade. All about 4 months seasoned. All staves have zero knots and are nice and clean except for a small one on the outside of stave 4, which can easily be avoided. Please send me a PM if you are interested, thanks!

Stave 1 *STAVE 1 IS NOW SPOKEN FOR.*- Length: 72 1/8"
- Width at small end: 3"
- Depth at small end: 1 7/8"
- Width at large end: 3 1/8"
- Depth at large end: 1 1/2"
- 3 3/8" natural reflex
Notes: This stave would make an excellent longbow or narrow outer limbed holmegard especially due to the high natural reflex, but any flatbow from this stave is going to require some correcting due to propeller twist. Looking down from small end:

Stave 4
- Length: 70 3/8"
- Width at small end: 3"
- Depth at small end: 2 1/4"
- Width at large end: 3"
- Depth at large end: 3"
- 1" natural reflex
Notes: This stave is very crowned and came from a small diameter osage tree. This stave will not make a flatbow, unless the back is very very crowned, and can mostly likely only be used to make a d section type of bow, like a longbow. Looking down from small end:
