Title: Trade arrow
Post by: warpath on August 22, 2013, 10:50:46 pm

Here is my trade arrow that I will be shipping out tomorrow. It is made from a piece of calcutta bamboo that has been heat straightened and tempered. I then did some random burn patterning to give it a nice cammo look. The nock, fletching, and trade tip has been bound in deer leg sinew I got from Trapper Rob. The fletching is left wing wild turkey secondaries. The trade tip I cut out of an old table saw blade and has a 3" long cutting edge and 1 3/4" at it's widest. The point end is 3/8" diameter and tapers to just over 11/32" at the nock. The shaft is sealed with a very light coat of bees wax. This arrow is spined for a 70#-75# bow and is 30 1/2" draw measuring from the valley of the nock to the back of the sinew wrapping for the tip. This is a replica of the arrows I used when I went buffalo hunting over 15 years ago. I hope the recipient enjoys and is able to make meat with this arrow. I will be shipping it out tomorrow. :)
