New arrows
« on: July 06, 2015, 10:29:40 pm »
Been working on these guys forever.  Normally arrows are pretty easy to put together, but custom feather shape, hand forged bodkin points, and hand carved self nocks slows things down some.  Finished two, four more on the way.

E for excellent, Mr Jensen.
Guns have triggers. Bicycles have wheels. Trees and bows have wooden limbs.

I would hate to be on the receiving end of those boogers! A shield would be a good thing to have in that situation.plate or chain mail wouldn't keep you completely safe.ouch!!
