I don't have any pics, but both look great in a longbow riser. I think they make for a very "classic" looking bow especially when mated with some aged (mellowed out, honey brown) osage limbs. I look forward to seeing some pics myself...Mike

I don't have pics handy but I do have a take down recurve made out of shedua and it seems to be considerably lighter weight than other bows.

Here's the pics. Sorry about the shine but I can't figure out how to turn it off on the darn camera. 60" 60 @ 28. Great Northern Fireball. Brazilian rosewood and hickory limbs.

Shure does look alot like cocobolo. I have some bolivian rosewood, more of a brown, but it finishes very well.

flint, here's a picture of a recurve I built with shedua. The stripes are maple and walnut. For brazilian rosewood you'll probably be looking at older bows. I could be wrong but not much of that around anymore to my knowledge and pretty prized wood if you can find it.

Here are some pics of my Black Creek Banshee.
Jim Gainey made it from a piece of Brazilian rosewood that I got from my Dad.
Solid and uninterrupted.
