I love the bow, but, as a hobbyist woodworker, what really had me taking notes was the rope and wedge clamping method. All in all - excellent job!

Horns are like the plastic of the ancient world. Awesome video!

Man, that was a smashingly cool archery fabrication show! As an archer I appreciate a bow with speed and that soft thumb sound at release. Your bow looks like a real pleasure to shoot and and has that soft thump sound at release . Very nice work!

To think these ancient Central Asian nomads put so much effort into a bow! It was adopted from East to West! Tombstones near Hadrian's Wall depict Syrian archers in the Roman army with such bows!

You can use the tip of the horn to make an archer ring. Since the thumb is used in Eastern bows, a special ring is used for it. We call it Zihgir. Some men in Turkiye still use these rings as jewelry. Those used as jewelry are mostly made of silver or precious stones. But the one I use for archery is made of buffalo horn. Really much better than metal, leather and plastic ones. It fits perfectly because it was made specifically for me.

J'adore le tir à l'arc. A 15 ans j'ai construit un long bow. Je savais seulement que le frêne est un bois flexible donc j'ai acheté une planche de cette essence et patiemment, je lui ai donné les formes voulues avec seulement une râpe à bois. Le résultat a été très décevant. Quand j'ai placé la corde, les branches ne pliaient pas de la même façon et l'arc n'avait pas de force. Les flèches crevaient à huit mètres et me suis finalement acheté un arc. Si j'avais pu voir ce reportage à l'époque, je n'aurais jamais essayé d'en construire un.

Massive Respect! A true artisanal masterpiece! I salute you Herr Andi!

Fascinating craftsmanship based upon millennials old techniques and materials from the Far East and Steppe regions. The original horn bows functioned wonderfully in desert regions but came apart in the humid regions. They were remarkably different than this example. I suspect that as with other surviving ancient crafts there were necessary modifications to adapt to changing situations. There area many online histories of the original horn bows and may be some videos of historic recreations. This tutorial is a welcomed documentation that the ancient ways are still viable. My greatest thank to this remarkable bowyer.

Beautiful bow, kinda reminds me Ottoman style. Bows like this were made short for horseback mounted archery. Also Ottomans (as well as Mongolians, Manchu and Korean archers) use special thumb ring with arrow going on right side of a bow, with this hold arrow doesn't move during horseback ride and draw length is increased (for me it's like 97 cm with european three finger technique and 105 with asian thumb technique) which is the great advantage since recurve bows need less draw force when fully drawn (longbow, for example, need more draw force the more you draw it). Also during arrow release bow naturally rotates which allows using it without left hand bowstring protection. P.S. All this info is just an interesting information I thought would be nice to share 😁
