These bows are genuine self-bows, that is they are made from one piece of wood without any laminating or backing for extra strength the same way they have been made for thousands of years.
Wooden bows must be approached with a different mentality to modern material bows and with correct treatment they will have a considerable life expectancy.
They cannot be guaranteed against breakage due to the fact that they are at the mercy of their users, but are tested and guaranteed to shoot at the specified draw length and weight when they leave the workshop.
