Title: "Evergreen" KANATI
Post by: Jason Kendall on March 28, 2010, 09:36:00 AM
What do you all think of this color? I really like the solid Dymondwood colors and I wanted something something a little different than the standard walnut, rosewood and charcoal.

Very cool. Green glass on the back and it would be even cooler looking.

I like it! Now, if you can get your hands on some of that green glass, that would be cool!.

Actually, black glass would look nice too..

I agree with Froggy.I'm normally not a fan of green wood but for me,the contrast of the warmer wood veneers,really sets it off.I like the combination a lot.If the limbs were green also,it would be too much for me.Nice.

not for me, but im sure there are plenty that would order one like that.

What I would like is a red/black layered actionwood, black glass, red/black accents.

If you want to change your order I can get it for you Matt, I like the weight of Dymondwood a little better myself but here is a sample of the red/black actionwood.

Different strokes I suppose, I'm not a fan of the green.

I like my walnut Kanati just fine thank you.   :)

I wish Mark, I just cant do exotics.

Brad, I was thinking kind of the same thing when I was grinding these lams for a customers bow.

I like it!

Now, please send it to me and I will give it some great exposure to the public, just for advertisement of course, not that I would benefit from it in any way. It would strictly be used for your benefit only, even as I take it hunting and stump shooting too.

  :thumbsup:    :)    ;)

HI Jason, i want to keep mine as ordered, i really like the "walnut" & black/tan trim we are going to use.

What are the lams in the photo just above Wannabe1's post?

Post by: Jason Kendall on March 28, 2010, 02:54:00 PM
Thanks guys.

Matt, those are "Cross-Cut" Bark Gray Actionwood veneers. It's the same wood as the Kamo Kanati on my site, just a different color.

Jason,
That green looks great with the tan of the limbs. It is a darn good looking color combination. I just might need on like that.

I don't know.  When I first looked at it I thought it was ugly and wasn't going to comment at all, but the more I look at it the more it is growing on me.  Certainly different.

Jason, great combo but make one up with those gray lams and put them side by side and start a poll. Bet you get some orders too! Do you go to Compton's? Would love to shoot your bows someday.

Go with the gray actionwood veneers it will make a great bow.
Green and it would end up like this.

I do like the green glass Tim, I think they use Jadewood colored Dymondwood, Ive used it before and thought it was a little bright so I when with the Evergreen, Rutply calls what I use French Green I believe.

Ken, I have a couple other pics on my site but I am working on better pics for all of the colors.

Mike, I would love to get over to Comptons someday, I would want to go and shoot though not sit at a booth! My kids are 6&10 and we havent been on a vacation out of state ever as a family, so with my time off work this year we are heading west to SD, WY & MT. Maybe next year I can make it to Comptons!
In April I have to build a few with different colored camo veneers for customers, I will put up some pictures when they are complete.

Thanks for the input guys, I appreciate it.

Jason-I think we are doing Compton in 2011.  I will sit your booth some for a discount on my next bow  :)
My son can't wait to go to Compton!
I really like the green riser.  My hubby fell in love with a Bob Lee that was green. I did not like it at all.  But I like the shade of green on this bow with the natural colored limbs.  Very cool!  You selling it?
Like the red and black as well.  Done a riser with it yet?
Title: Re: "Evergreen" KANATI
Post by: Jason Kendall on March 30, 2010, 10:09:00 PM
Katie, I may have to take you up on that!

I havent done any red/black yet, I really prefer the Dymondwood solid colors myself.

I have some popular veneers that are greenish in color that would look great with that riser.  I can send you some to try.  Chad
