Does anyone have a piece of turtle shell they would be willing to part with? I can trade ya something for it. i just want a little piece for a strikeplate on an english longbow i am building, thanks, Dan.

Sounds cool, but wouldn't that be a bit hard for a strike plate?

I saw an old EB the other day that must have been made in the 30'/40s. It had a mother of peal or abbalony (SP?)strike plate. I think a turtle shell would be great. It had a plain leather wrapped handle for shooting off the hand and bone nocks on the ends. Go for it Gopher, sorry I don't know where you'd get turtle. Our golf course has a lot around a ball eating pond in the summer.
