flint and steel
« on: July 31, 2009, 07:38:00 PM »
Here's a couple I made for Wade (stripstike1). He wants to hunt brown bear and I bet he will. The knapped point (273 grain) is by Woody Blackwell and the damascus point (296 grain) is by Doug Campbell. Total mass weight for the arrow with the knapped point is 761 grains and the damascus point arrow is 773 grains. Shafts are tonkin cane with Western Diamondback skins I collected myself. Big wild turkey fletchs put on straight to stabilize the big points. The points are spin balanced when hafted. These arrows are extreme FOC and fly great.

I've come to expect this level of artistry from Chuck.  If I was poked with an arrow like that, I'd brag about it.  The arrow with Doug's trade point has "dead bear" written all over it.  

The atlatl, though...  The thing blows me away.  Amazing work!      :notworthy:    :notworthy:    :notworthy:
