Im looking for a nice double handed bow. I've heard that bear used to make one in the 50's, but thats about it. Anyone out there that makes them today?

Give James of J D Berry a call, he's made what you are looking for and has been building bows for 30 years now. A real work of art that shoots the way a bow should shoot. Jame's phone number is (509) 299-3029. You can also see is web by going to  www.berrygamecalls.com  once there click on links then on J D Berry bows. Good luck

It's not on my site (I can get it), but Chek-Mate makes the "Court Jester", a 64" one-piece recurve.  Looks very similar to the King's Pawn.

I've got a custom "Fox" longbow I had made to shoot from either side about 12 years ago.
