Title: Pics of some new arrows
Post by: knightc71 on April 26, 2009, 10:07:30 pm: Hey there guys!! Just thought that I would share a few pics of my new tonkin cane arrows with you. You will be able to see them at the classic. I just wanted to get your opinions on the dye jobs. Don't be afraid to be honest. I hope you enjoy them. As almost everyone says, the pictures don't do them justice!!

I find it really tough to get a nice finish on boo. You seem to have the dying process mastered. Looking forward to seeing the arrows and meeting The Family Knight at the classic.

Post by: Adam Keiper on May 01, 2009, 10:45:09 pm: They look really sharp. Love the variegated dye job. ;D
Title: Re: Pics of some new arrows
Post by: Hillbilly on May 04, 2009, 03:47:37 pm: After seeing those in person at the Classic, the pictures don't even begin to do them justice. That dye technique is something else, it looks a half inch deep and almost iridescent. Some of the best looking arrows I've seen.
Title: Re: Pics of some new arrows
Post by: Pat B on May 04, 2009, 03:55:57 pm: I concur with Hillbilly. The pics don't do them justice. In person they are incredible!!!
Title: Re: Pics of some new arrows
Post by: mullet on May 04, 2009, 04:39:07 pm: Yes Mam, I'll second that! Very Nice!
Title: Re: Pics of some new arrows
Post by: DanaM on May 04, 2009, 08:32:09 pm: I second what Hillbilly said, Cora's arra's are top notch and I have three of em ;D

Gonna be my hunting arra's this fall :)

Post by: knightc71 on May 05, 2009, 06:08:12 pm: Thanks so much for the compliments guys!! I am going to TRY and make some more here in the near future. When I get them done, I will post some more pics.

For those of you who do have some of them, make sure that you get some blood on them and send me pics. That would really make my day. I plan on making a scrap book of the arrows that I have given to others with their kills and my arrows. Send your pics!!!!

Again, thanks so much for the compliments.

Post by: knightc71 on May 06, 2009, 01:40:32 pm: Timo, Can you please tell me the issue that your article was written in, as I am not a subscriber to the magazine so I would really like to see your article. I will order a back issue so that I can see it. Thanks

Post by: brownhillboy on May 06, 2009, 03:55:43 pm: I too saw these arrows at the Classic, and I was afraid for my 8 yr. old to touch them because I know how much work it takes to make an arrow that's probably not even half as good as these and he can break just about anything! Your arrows are amazing!
Title: Re: Pics of some new arrows
Post by: Aries on May 10, 2009, 06:57:23 pm: Beautiful :o :o!!! I have to find that article!

Title: Re: Pics of some new arrows
Post by: Pappy on May 13, 2009, 07:35:56 am: I really ,really like the middle ones. ;) ;D Now all I need to do is get some hunting heads on them,
It is some beautiful work and exceptionally straight. Very nice work.
