Here are the arrows, ready for fletching - yea, I know, there are only 11.  One was already in the jig when I decided to take a picture.
   
Not the best picture in the world, colors came out real nice.   They should look good coming out of an osage bow.  I really like the brass heads.

Whatever the consensus is I'm fine with. I just thought pic's of the package would be nice. No big deal either way but if it all does come together here I will cover shipping....Charles

Sounds like a great idea to me. Doug and Jeff have my donations right now so they will need to get the pieces to Charles.

Knife forged & finished...6 1/2" oal 3 1/4" blade, alligator skin over tapered Osage slabs for handle on 5160 high carbon steel. I believe the blade will be a good match for the bow.  I will wait til I know if winning bidder is RH or LH before attaching the sheath on quiver.  Thanks to Charles for the alligator skin.  This has been a fun project...thanks to the entire group.  Doc

Thanks JC and all the gang for the compliments. Doc has done an awesome job. Brace yourselfs for the bowcase on the way from Shell. It might be Tuesday before it gets here. The arrows from Irish and bowstrings from Bert are first class. The bow is coming along quite well. The finishing is something that takes time to achieve the quality needed to be worthy of all this...

Take your time, you are doing good!  :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:    :thumbsup:

The broadhead used, regardless of how sharp, is nowhere as important as being able to place it in the correct spot.
