What bow do you carry with your knife?
« on: March 26, 2009, 08:51:00 PM »
I have an idea about your knife prefernce, but just for fun, what bow do you carry with your knife?

I carry my Super Shrew Samurai 58" 50# @ 25" & My new Voodoo Kustom 56" 59# @ 28".

Mods if you pull this I understand!

Dan, is the recurve your own design, Bingham's ?

Bingham's limb design, cut an inch short, of their 58" model.  Then my own riser design, a couple of inches shorter than their design.

Love to share this beauty.  Doug Campbell made me this damacus knife with riser woods from my Blacktail. (55@29, 62")  Cocobolo and bocote.

I carry one of my two Zona bows. Each has there own matching blades. I built them from saw blade steel and actual scraps from the bows. Skippy
