  Ooooo, Mike.  This is only tye second time I remember seeing your work, and I am a little impressed.  I really like the geometry of the side profile.

Also, I've never even seen laburnum worked, and that wood is GORGEOUS.  It has that inner luster I get and love sometimes in black locust.

Awesome work.  I agree with the rest, superb leather work.  I dig the rustic look of it.

Terrible, both of them! Clearly belong on a shelf somewhere where people don't know what quality craftsmanship look like. Since I'm a nice guy I'd be willing to pay shipping and get rid of them for you ;)

Really beautiful bend on both bows and I do agree with all that the leatherwork is superb. I can't help but point out that the Osage is just my weight ;D

Might as well make them short, save some wood to keep warm.
