Looks amazing mate!
Is their recurve in the levers at all or is the back all flat?

Looking really good!
I shot a molle from simk in summer and really liked it, sadly the sinew lifted and the yew gave up underneath. Looking forward to get a new one made of OO.
Again, this are some gracefully shapes you carved out of this elm!!
