Wenge done up right is a very pretty dark wood. I think it would look awesome with Zebra.

And as some already mentioned, good ol' Cocobolo and Zebra can be real pretty. Here's my Thunderhorn with that combo.

And of course you could go with only Zebra.

I always thought zebra and wenge or zebra and bacote would look great together.

Yes zebra is strong enough for it's own riser in a longbow-type format.  Not sure about a TD recurve though.

I have a Zebrawood riser with a Wenge stripe. Looks great and adds alittle mass weight to the bow.
