I'll take some pics in the next couple of days of the two I have.

Pearl, the nocks are spliced woods on the bow nocks.

Second bow. Stillwater Berwick, 52# @ 28", 66"

This is an slightly snakey osage selfbow. Really nice craftsmanship, great nocks. Some glue filled linear cracks are present in the limbs, this is not uncommon for selfbows but does show his skill with dealing these types of cracks to make a solid and functional bow.
