Look at the Palmer bows website. Mike uses m. ebony and bocote on most of the recurve bows he builds - as far as I can see. It is a nice wood and my ebony grip area has grown shiny in a positive way with use.

A Blacktail I owned for a time...Macassar with a Myrtle flare.

Look at the Silvertip webpage.  Lots of bows with Macasser including several of mine, Felixs, Dannys, Matts, my bros...

Good lord Gary how many new bows are you going to get in a year lol.  Fyi, Big Jim happened across some beautiful ebony and he doesn't just sell bows.    ;)    ;)    
Enjoy your new silvertip.

Not a recurve, or the best pics, but hope this helps.

My trusty old Habu recurve. It's probably about time to maybe think about getting this one refinished. Love that bow.
