Hi comrades
!
I have a question for sinew lovers. For how long time are the tendons usable? I have a bulk of moose tendons about 5 years old.

If the sinew hasn't rotted and were stored in a dry place they should still be good.

Sinewed bows over 100 years old can be strung up and shot. If your sinew is stored well it will outlast you.
I recently used some sinew that Marc sent me what seems like yesterday but in fact was almost 20 years ago.
