Huh?? Go rabid math addict? Sorry, I actually don't speak Gaelic.
Anyway, the point, and not just the one at the top of my head, is that I was going to invite you over here to bowhunt deer. if you ever get the chance. I'm in the Black Hills of South Dakota (think Mount Rushmore) and you can purchase the archery deer license when you get here, crash at my house, and we'll furnish our own meals outa my kitchen. Budget Bowhunts for Blarney Speakers, that's me.
HatchA:
JW... What an offer!! One that I'd dearly love to avail of at some point in the future. I'll PM you and we can talk more...?

***EDIT***
As promised for Cromm, here are a couple of pic's of the "Archer's dagger" that was made for my by Rob Miller in Scotland. He runs the Castlekeep forge on the Isle of Skye.

HatchA, welcome, and like Eddie ( Mullet ) said, playing with sharp blades half a$$ed is not the way to go. That being said, as for your Archers' Dagger......SAWEEEEETTT!!!! :o Now where is the Sword? He does beautiful work. I like Guinness, now and then. Not on the top of my list, but I do occasionally drink it. However I do like my Tullamore Dew! I used to drink Jack Daniels, but have moved to Crown Royal.......even if it is owned by the Franks...... ::) That dagger and sword must have set you back a few bob, quid, shillings, six pence, fifty pee, etc. or whatever denomination that used to be around before the Euro......but it is sure a beautiful piece of craftsmanship. Again welcome, and like Mullet said, there is a wealth of knowledge, and skills here. Now to the other addiction on here, you need to get into flint Knapping! Being as how you have a " Plethora " of flint available to you, you can start making your own arrow heads, and stone knives, etc. Good luck on your Osage self bow, and don't fight the addiction, it is much better to just give in to it. ;) Besides, you have a huge support group here. 8) Take care, and keep us posted on the Ipe bow, and the up coming bow.
