I would love one

how many of those hand tools did the stone age people have access to? recreating it like this makes the real accomplishment seem pedestrian. Might as well laminate it and brand it and then compare it. This is just an infomercial produced by a businessman.

It would more authentic if you didn't use metal tools.

he puts his arrow on the wrong side of the bow,the way a modern target shooter places the arrow,No ancient user of the bow would do that unless he was left handed.ua-cam.com/video/BEG-ly9tQGk/v-deo.html

great you made a Bow from old Denmark

As an English Stone mason, I can appreciate the sheer craftsmanship and fully enjoying the results of years of hard work. Thank you Sir. From Britain.

Stunning craftsmanship 😮

That shows it's an art to build em,definitely not a lost one, that was an excellent shooter!!

A man can never have too many clamps.

Any Elms left in Holland?

That bow was epic great job what did u use for the finish

I keep imagining this being done with stone tools.

May I ask what the dimensions of the form you clamped the bow on thanks a lot.

I'd give up on the card scraper unless you have a true burnishing tool or a tungsten screwdriver. Tired of damaging my current screwdrivers and achieving no burr

Damn that's gorgeous.... shoots well too, wish we had more bow builders and teachers out here in the southeast. God bless bud from ole Carolina.

Excellent! Out of curiosity, how many hours went into this?

Next year, I will try to make a bow from Elmwood. It has been drying for almost one year.

I’m 9 min in and all his modern tools were available 500 years ago.

I bet in the future, war enthusiasts will be building AKs and Garands from scratch in their garages or maybe they will be hunting with the same bows.

Good work, however, would it not have been more authentic to have used tools and resources available to the people at the time of the original

Lots to do today. Oh look a master bowyer making a historical bow. Hey, its only 20 minutes.

This is a fine demonstration of just how mind boggling it is that shows the brilliance of the original bow makers thousand of years ago who made amazing bows like this without the aid of any modern tools!

Why a flemish string when she could use a scandinavian string ?

9000 years ago humans were crude uneducated cave dwelling heathen with no... kerrr thunk.. Those shots with the arrows whizzing by showed to me everything I need to know how advanced, innovative and deadly our ancestors were. Great illustration of history

Undeniably lethal against baled straw.

Beautiful bow!

Nice shooting. Are you a self taught archer or did you learn at an archery range?

Thanks for posting. There are lots of vids on youtube about sharpening a card scraper. Some of them are very elaborate and time consuming in the edge prep. The reality is that most of the methods on YT work, but in my experience, prepping the edge straightforwardly as in this vid works just fine. You need something harder than your card in order to burnish the edge, and I've found the shaft of a chrome vanadium screwdriver works. I also think the quality of the metal used for the scraper is important, as sometimes the burnished edge doesn't last. I'm not sure what 'quality' means as yet, perhaps it's the carbon content of the steel. :)

Great video. I am a sailor and do some carpentry with had-shaped pieces, but your skill and patience is just great. Amazing to realise that what you just made was, at the time, the highest of high tech, and that your craft is directly related to some guy 7000 years ago doing exactly the same thing.

😍😍😍

Imagine crafting such a bow with stone tools.

Nice process, but Proffessional boweyr dont keep quiver at back. Proffessional bowyer should know, that kind of quivers are from movies and storys for children. Not from history.

I am 68. Can I do this?

Great archeology!

I'm from Maine and I'm an advid Longbow hunter. I have never made a bow like this and want to start making bows...Glad I found your channel ! Outstanding !

That is fascinating! Well done You! 😁

Back in the day they also made this without modern tools or equipment. Great video.

Absolutely fantastic 🙏

Awesome video. A pleasure to watch you work. Thanks man. ❤

can't even begin to think how long it would take to make 1 bow without the modern equipment!

Try doing this with stone tools, no template, no rulers etc... then I'll be impressed

🙂❤❤❤greetings,beautifull,exellent

That thing is beautiful man great work!!

DUDE that group was bananas!!!!!!

I am looking at building a longbow from hickory this winter. I stumbled across your youtube videos. I will be referring to them as I build.

This is fascinating craft/skill….it seems so complete from start to finish, you have definitely found and refined your work, my hats off to you

How do I buy one just like this?
