The Viking bows we made are inspired by the famous Hedeby bows (Haithabu) . At Hedeby some longbows were found with similar characteristics.
The Viking bows have a side nock at the top at the bottom nock.
Our Viking bows are tillered to come round compass and are usually made from one single piece of Ash (although we have made a version with rawhide backings and from laminated tropical hardwoods, as well as solid yew and solid Osage.)
The Viking bows are usually 78 inches long and fit for a max draw length of 32 inches.
Semi-gloss varnish and oil based finish, and a full leather handstitched grip make this bow something you want to have. The bow comes complete with B-50 Dacron Flemish inlaid string.
