12” Deluxe Loquat (Biwa) Wand
(Fairly Rigid)
This deluxe wand is hand carved from Loquat (Biwa) timber, with a natural curved profile.
The live-edge grip shows white sapwood; as does the hilt swell; and the rounded pommel shows the lovely light-coral colored heartwood.
A swell at the hilt leads to a slender beam, which is all heartwood, with a curve that tilts the grip down into your palm.
This wand has also been burnished to further polish and toughen the surface.
Finish is lacquer.
A strong wand that celebrates the natural beauty of the wood.
Perfectly balanced at the hilt, and very friendly in the hand—left or right.

This wand is amazing. So smooth and perfectly polished. The knotted wood literally radiates magic. Some wands are so nice you just want to hold them all day and put them under your pillow at night. 😉

Wow. This is the kind of craftsmanship that should set the bar for all other artisans. It is perfect in its simplicity. Job well done. And the follow up service, has completely spoiled me. With this shop, be confident in your purchase. It will be everything you thought it to be.

I have good experience with this longbow, however it is not the same and will be different or difficult to string if you are used to a more modern material bows(Modern material bends easier)
The listing says 52lb with 22 inch draw length. The draw length I agree but the pull is definitly leaning heavy. Maybe 52lb pull on a traditional wooden bow made of osage spaling is different and harder to bend than lets say traditional wood like english yew? I cannot say for sure since I have no experience.
Shoot has a satisfying sound, the bow string included is older style with a self tighten knot. The arrows I shot is a dummy arrow not a real one but it still felt very nice.
Highly recommanded if you are into traditional long bow.
