SimonUK:
Initially I thought the handle was a bit stiff, but there's some reflex at that point, isn't there?  So in effect it's fairly circular.

Kviljo:
Yep, it's got a bit of reflex at the handle. I tillered it from straight lines drawn on the side of it, and made sure it bends progressively more from the grip to the tips.

D. Tiller:
Nice bow! Hows it shoot?

Justin Snyder:
Pretty impressive bow kviljo.  Justin

Rod:
Any bow, especially a heavy one is easier to string if you can get the horn nocks to run flush into the wood. That's why we make them that way, not just because it looks more elegant.
The only time I got injured with a heavy bow, it was when I was stringing one and stalled at the nock, like tripping on a kerb stone...
