In my words
A selfbow, made from one carefully selected piece of white hickory, with no laminations: 55# at 28", 65# at 32", 76" overall.
Like every bow I make, it had custom buffalo horn tips, right and left handed inlaid strike plates, a deer skin and sinew handle wrap if it was asked for, and three coats of hand rubbed satin hard wax oil, built to the specs for proper longbows. It came with a B-55 Flemish twist string, a B-55 stringer and my one-year full replacement warranty.
This is the one photo of it I can show you here: the whole bow, braced on the tiller.
