This is a traditional handmade horn bow core semi-finished kit, available in multiple classic designs, including Long Siyah Bow Core, Small Siyah Bow Core, Turkish Bow Core, and Qing Bow Core. Each bow base is crafted from naturally smoked bamboo and hard maple wood, ensuring strength, flexibility, and authenticity — the same structure used in historical horn composite bows.Draw weight:30-85Lbs.
The bamboo is carefully selected and harvested after the first frost, then boiled in salt water, rinsed, semi-dried, and smoked for about four months under dense natural smoke below 40°C. This rare process eliminates insects, enhances elasticity, and strengthens fiber structure — making it superior to regular air-dried bamboo used in modern reproductions.
Each semi-finished core retains the original shape of traditional horn bows, suitable for craftsmen, artisans, or collectors wishing to build authentic bows or restore antique ones. Each piece measures approximately 4 cm wide and 120 cm long, with minor variations due to natural materials and handcrafting. Custom sizing or specifications can be arranged upon request.
This rare material kit preserves techniques that are nearly lost in modern times — a true collector’s item and a valuable resource for historical archery enthusiasts.
