I am going to get another now and am really wanting a darker, blind bow something like micarta ebony and walnut etc with some darker snake skins something like a water snake if you have anything to show me along those lines i would greatly appreciate it
Here is one I just delivered to a customer. It is Macassar ebony and Paradox Walnut. I build these in lengths from 54 to 64 inchs
God bless you ,

Wow, you guys have some awesome bows! Sixby, that Paradox Walnut is super nice. I build about 6 bows a year for myself and Helen and they are all simple bows nothing like the others posted above. I used curly walnut veneer in this bow. (http://i596.photobucket.com/albums/tt46/Robertfishes/feb2012bow15.jpg)

Kadbow...
Nice to find out one of the owners of that bow.
I've had a few picture of that bow saved for some time now.
Those are one of my top 3 best looking limbs I've ever seen...not trying to rub it in..lol
Sweet looking bows guys!
holy smokes kadbow...feelin your pain on that one. Geez id give my left arm... that thing is a drool magnet
And v-archer, that bow immediately made me think of a sketchy tough ladies man going to the prom while pack heat under his tux.

There are some beautiful recurves in this thread, but I LOVE the colors in your longbow. It makes me smile from ear to ear knowing that in a few weeks, I'll have a hunter model like it. I think the wood and colors I picked are identical to yours. Seeing your photos, I know I made a good choice.
