My first Longbow Arrow!

<< < (3/3)

Harudath:
I was just thinking about that earlier. Thanks :)

Rod:
The bodkin you have is nice enough, but appears to machine turned and then ground.
This may produce a more consistent socket but if you are going for authenticity it would be better to use a hand forged head with a rolled socket, which would probably also increase the price somewhat.

Harudath:
Yeah, its a machine made bodkin. Were I to open the shop, I'd give the option of bodkin (which would be a hand forged and more expensive arrow) or a standard field point.
