Wanting a skinning/caping neck knife
hedgeapple:
I sprayed this stave when it came into my possession in March. It was cut in Feb. 2012. I bug bomb my workshop the first week of spring, summer, winter and fall. So, it's had 2 bombings. To save some shipping cost and to make sure there is not borer issues, I will peel the bark, sapwood off of it.
You can probable get 2 bows from this stave, maybe 3. My friend had it in log form and we split it before I brought it home. It split down ever line that I wanted it to do.
Here is a bow I made from it's sister stave. It was a smaller stave than this one and I got a belly split from it that will be a freckle over an inch wide. Hey, it's osage, it make a bow. The sister stave made a bow with only 2 growth rings.
