Draw knife for a new bowyer

(1/2) > >>

Justin.schmidt23:
Ok so I'm new at bow making and I'm completely hooked. I just cut down a hackberry tree tonight I have about 6 staves out of it. If anyone is interested I'd love to trade a stave for a draw knife. I'd buy my own but I just don't have the money at this time. Thank you

Justin.schmidt23:
Here's some pics of the staves. They're 86in right now. I can cut em shorter if need be. I didn't measure the width but there about 2-2 1/4in W.  I'll double check tomorrow. I don't have any shalack so I used paint to seal the ends or I would show pics of the grain. I cut this tree down with a hatchet today. So I'm willing to work for what I got.

bjrogg:
Sorry Justin, don't have a extra draw knife to trade. Sometimes you can find them at garage sales

Thank you though. I guess I should delete this I'm in the works of a trade with mullet.

osage outlaw:
You could probably pick up a draw knife on ebay or at a local antique show for the price of shipping a stave.
