Mine shows delivered friday afternoon. I know Warpath was at a show over the weekend though.

I got a real nice arrow today from Wildman.
Shoot shaft, eastern two fletch with a forged steel point, and a forged flint and steel striker to go along with it.
Thanks Wildman. I'm gonna see if I can catch a spark with the striker

Who said metal points can't be primitive? I like the look of the rough forging. I may copy that in the future. I have a silver smithing background and tend to smooth and polish way more than necessary. 

PS Thanks for the kudos Mullet.

I still have to post pics the arrow(s) I received, been having computer issues. Hopefully tonight.

Got one heck of a nice arrow from wizardgoat today it was well worth the wait.

Here is the beautiful arrow I got from Paul Semp.  Although it will end its life as a display arrow, I can confirm she flies straight and true.  Thank you Paul - shes a looker.  I really like the arrow sheath too.

 I just got a real nice arrow from Old Hippy, I'll get some pictures up tomorrow. Steve, yours will be going out as soon as I get a tube long enough. Thanks, Buddy.

   Glad that you like it little buddy. It's hard to believe that I haven't given you an arrow before now. I don't do fancy< just a plain Jane that came out of my quiver, and probably been shot a time or two. It's a hill cane shaft with a Flint Ridge point with sinew wrap and pine pitch binding and store bought feathers.

I got home yesterday to find my son standing at the door going open it!...lol I received a great arrow for my collection from RBLusthaus. Thank you Russ, I love everything about it, the Gar scale point on that thing is great. Sorry but I have lost the ability to resize my pictures for the site. Ed

Finally got my permanent computing station back up and running, so without further adiue.

Here's the promised pics of the arrow I received from 1442.




Here was the surprise top secret arrow. I hope it's okay that I'm sharing it.


Thanks again 1442. I can only hope to knap a point like that someday. I have managed to actually finish a dozen or so thus far without incident. Now I have a hard time deciding whether to knap or scrape bows. I suppose I'm a winner either way.

I didn't realize I cut the right side of that last pic off. The head of that arrow pulls off to reveal a pen. Truly a neat idea.

Glad you like em DK
That secret arrow was only a secret until you saw it then it was no longer a secret, so it was ok to share it.
I am torn between knapping and bowyering and arrow making and fishing, and more fishing all the time, Dang work gets in the way of all of it.
You will make points better than that if you keep at it. sometimes it's best to work on bows or something and then get back to knapping. I made some of my biggest progressions at knapping by actually taking a break from it for a week or so then getting back to it.
If ever I can help just holler.

Really nice work Terry

Thanks Falcon.

Here is the arrow I received from Blackcoyote, it is a hillcane shaft with a broadhead his grandfather used to hunt with.  The fletchings are natural turkey with a really cool printed cock feather.  The pictures cannot do the dye job justice, it is a gorgeous arrow and just as deadly.

That is so straight and smooth it almost looks like carbon. Oh, is that a good thing?
Beautiful arrow.
