Jason let me know today he started my new Kanati. Can't wait to see this thing all done . Wanted something different so I ordered an all black phenolic riser with bamboo colored accents. Feel like a kid a week before Christmas ! :jumper:
Got one coming anytime with phenolic/bacote riser. Veneers of birdseye bacote....cant hardly wait also !!!
Froggy
Good deal. I reckon I'll just have to keep on shooting the one I already have. But, I don't have a problem with that.
Those Kanatis are really awesome bows. I see his current wait time is out to October so there must be lots of demand too! Post pics when you get it!
I really lucked out finding mine used with the exact specs I was looking for in the classifieds. If I ordered one now it would hardly arrive in time for hunting season.
If everything goes well Vic I will be spraying the finish on Sunday..
Sorry for the delays, trying to get caught up from being out of the shop for 2 months has been difficult but I should be back on track soon for everyone..
Awesome!
I think the all phenolic riser will be great.
Wow, I can't wait to see this one! Sounds like a cool choice.
Can't go wrong with a Kanati
My go to bow!

A black phenolic riser Kanati sounds like a great idea. Can't wait to see the photos.
Will post pics as soon as it comes in. Maybe Jason can post a few as its being built pics
Jason sent a few pics from the build (http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/bb417/duffer1565/phenolic%20kanati/240213-1026_zpscbf24eb0.jpg)
Exciting and congrats! I Never shot a Kanati, but from what I've heard they are real shooters!
Looking good ! Simple but classy at the same time .Looking the way I imagined it . :pray: (http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/bb417/duffer1565/phenolic%20kanati/240213-1210_zpsc83cf1ab.jpg)
Jason sent me a finished pic. All I can say is I am tickled pink ! It turned out just as I had hoped . Jason you have left me speachless ,which is rare . Will post more pics when she gets to NY . :notworthy: :notworthy: :clapper: (http://i1204.photobucket.com/albums/bb417/duffer1565/phenolic%20kanati/260213-0558_zpseac9d936.jpg)
it's beautiful !!!
looks great :thumbsup:
He is doing a all phenolic riser for me also, gonna use the darker bamboo on it to blend better with the front and back bacote veneers. I really like the looks of your's, looking forward to seeing how much more mass it will have compared to the wood riser Kanatis I have now......
Congrats !!!!!
Duffer: that bow looks awesome, looks like this site is going to cost me more money ill give Jason a call tomorrow.
It will be a call worth making thump . Froggy you will have to post some pics when your bow is finished,would love to see it .
WOW -- That looks great. Please let us all know what influence the additional riser mass has on the shooting characteristics.
:clapper: :clapper: :clapper:
WOW. Looks Awesome!
Now if I could get one with a phenolic handle and a bow bolt.... :goldtooth:
Wow... I want that bow...
Will do..... congrats again on a sweet bow !!
Froggy
WOW just WOW......
Thanks everyone, will let you all know how she shoots. But seeing as it's a Kanati I can't see it shooting anyway but great !
Very nice!
Real nice! :thumbsup:
I can't imagine that being anything but a shooter.
Looks great!
wow,
nice looking bow!
Nice :thumbsup:
Just realized those are 3 layer accent lines.
WAY cool!
Nice :thumbsup:
I need to look into these bows a little more...that is sharp.
Very nice. I'm unstringing all my other bows. My Kanati is getting the nod for turkey season. I really like the phenolic. I love my 58" but have been considering a 60".
Dam thats a nice one! Enjoy, Jason builds a hard hitting hunting bow. Love mine!
Beautiful!
Wow that's a beaut.
That doesn't help my want for a Kanati back in the stable at ALL.
I'm interested to hear if there's a weight change with the all phenolic riser too - I've grown fond of a "heavy" riser, but I just love the lines and feel of the Kanati.
Wihill,
I will let you know next week. Jason called Sunday saying he glued mine up. It's a 58" with black phenolic riser w/ bacote and phenolic stripes. Birdseye Bacote veneers front and back along with the dark boo cores....... Cant wait !!!!!

If I am not wrong, phenolic is similar to Cocobolo in weight. If you want more weight, the best bet is to order your riser with lots of glass.
Well I can finally post some pics of the bow and let you know what I think. First off it is beautiful ! Jason built it just as I wanted. To me it is simple yet classy for use of a better word. The grip like all his bows, is outstanding and fits your hand like a glove . Fit and finish is perfect and this thing can really shoot an arrow fast and quiet ! The phenolic riser does add weight but not a crazy amount, just enough to let you know its there. Couldn't be happier with it. Jason hit a home run with this one !Only down side is no more orders are being taken this year so it will be a long wait for another I may think up .

She's a great shooter to boot

Nice group! What distance was that from?
Wow......I really like that. You've saved me for awhile now that orders are closed for the year......gives me time to think about the specs of my next one!
David
Nativestranger the group was from 15 yds. Thats all my basement range allows .
Whoa... That is pure beauty... I've had two kanati's come through my bow rack, and when I see posts like this, it never fails I start kicking myself for letting them go.
Duffer - If you ever decide to sell this one, I get dibs!!!
cpnhgnlngct I don't see that happening real soon but if I ever do you'll get first crack at it.
Boy O Boy.... "that's a fine looking piece" you got there !!!
Froggy
Thanks Froggy, looking forward to seeing yours when its done .
:thumbsup:
I said it before, but wow did that turn out nice.
BTW - when did Jason start working with exotics? I thought he had a strict no exotics policy (which wasn't a big deal to me - I've yet to see a Kanati that wasn't just beautiful...).
Man that's a sweet looking bow! When I get to the US next year I'm going to have to shoot me one of these bows I thinks!
ak.
Al you will want one as soon as you shoot it .
Awesome!
That's a beauty and it sure looks like you know how to use is. Jason build a super bow and is a great person to work with :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
Al,
If your'e down Georgia way, feel free to come by and shoot any of mine.....
