Made of forged wood with suede leather grip wrap.

David Mamet's Notes: As part of my knife collecting history, I became friendly with the great Bill Bagwell (the second man, after Bill Moran) to make modern Damascus. I hunted with him in East Texas and in Vermont. He made me a gift of two longbows (which bows he shot masterfully, and with which he hunted, when he was not shooting blackpowders). I hope I am not being disrespectful to Bill to pass them along, but, as I mentioned before, the money from the sale is going to Charity. (Bill also got me into blackpowder shooting, notably, with a modern .58 Hawken which I love and which is not in this sale). Arrows to suit.
