another couple of organic arrows
« on: October 29, 2010, 11:07:00 PM »
i made up 2 arrows for my 54# recurve last week. i knapped the heads a little while ago from some mahogany obsidian. the shafts are douglas fir. the heads and feathers are glued and bound with pine pitch and roo tail sinew. self nocks too.....of course!

i'm pinning my hopes of taking my 1st animal with a point that i knapped myself on these two arrows.

'there be goats in them there hills!'

thanks for looking.

My lame attempt as a knapper made me realize just how difficult it is.

Those heads are beautiful!
