Survival Bows (The Tillering Process)

@btigtime2 I’ve read “The Road” great book. Man would that situation suck!

Lansky puck sharpener on Dave’s site.

awsome video dave thanx alot

4:45 here comes the wind. Sounds like surf!

I believe the axe is a wetterlings 18 3/4″

Which do you prefer, Wetterlings or Grandsfor Bruks Axe

Wetterlin is cheaper, is it that less of quality?

i made the bow, but then it broke after 10nth shot so yeah

My second bow (which I made yesterday) had a knot in the same place. I didn’t have a problem with the knot but unfortunately I didn’t shave off enough on one of the limbs and it broke on me.
It would have made a good bow (aside from the wormholes) since it was 65” and pulled fully to 28” but it was just 1 to many pull of the string to cause it to snap.

Thanks for the great videos, you have taught me a lot about making my own bow.

How do you know which type of wood/tree to select? I know its a survival bow but you may aswell choose the best wood that you can all the same.

Have you ever used cordage for backing?

rain haha it snowed here 18 degrees near st louis missouri still ★★★★★

sharp tools makes all the difference. your edge should be able to “bite” even the hardest woods
