I can't add much to what the others have said, but it is a beautiful bow in every way.  As far as black Palm goes, Rich Scaffold made several black palm ELBs back in the day that were very nice.  He is also the person that brought the first Ipe to MoJam, which he also used for long skinny ELBs that were very well mannered.  It is a beautiful addition to your bow.   :OK

Quick question, anyone have any idea how many bows a medieval (for arguments sake let’s say 15th century) bowyer would be required to produce block blast? Would be nice to know.

Are you trying to calculate yield for a particular historical scenario?
