Thank you so much...im glad you like it...man, you guys are fast with replays..haha..yes, you can feel the handshock  a little...it bends quite alot on the handle area..i wass trying to make the tiller more eliptic, but well, this is it...it wass quite short, and i was afraid that it might snap, if i leave to midle area to rigid..

That thing is killer.  In fact those siyahs remind me of an killer whale.  That bow has awesome stream-lined orca-ness going on.  Very creative and finely made.

Great tiller, great workmanship.
Siyahs are great aesthetically, but I don't think they are quite so good from an engineering perspective? (excess mass)
Hope you don't mind the critique.
