semi primitive arrow display
« on: July 13, 2011, 04:00:00 PM »
3 cane arrows with real snake skins. All have hand cut selfnocks and imitation sinew used for hafting and fletching. I have mounted these on a live edge piece of spalted and burled Silver Maple.
 First is the one with Banded obsidian point by Robert Thompson. Bocote foreshaft, Pygmy Rattlesnake skin, Royal Palm Turkey fletching.
Next is the arrow with the Tecovas Jasper point by Kinley Coyan. Dyed Dogwood foreshaft, Copperhead snake skin, Rio Grande Turkey secondary fletching. The third has a Alibates point by Robert Thompson, Dyed Hickory foreshaft, Western Diamondback skin, Guinea Fowl fletching. All of these arrows are of shootable quality although they are generally used for display.
  I will be offering these on the sponsors classifieds soon. Thanks for looking.

I remember asking to see a pic of these displayed when you posted them a few weeks back....really nicely done.  What a cool piece of Maple to show them off with!  Very nice work Charles.

Beautiful man!  How was the snake skin attatched or glued to the arrow? I've been thinking of trying that with copperhead on a few hunting Arrows for myself!
Thanks
