This obsidian arrowhead is designed for hunting big game. It weighs 45 grains and has very finely serrated edges that are so sharp they feel sticky when your finger is drawn across them. It provides a 7/8 inch cutting width and has a non-barbed design to conform to states that require a non-barbed broadhead design. It’s pretty too, with mottled black and brown obsidian at the base and the tip, with smoky clear obsidian in the center of the point.
This obsidian hunting point weighs 62 grains and has finely serrated edges that are super sharp and provides a 1-inch cutting width. This point will take down big game quickly when you put the arrow in the right spot. I recommend you use a bow with a minimum draw weight of 50 lbs and arrows weighing 550 grains.

These 3 metal points are modern made replicas that exactly copy the arrow points that tipped many Plains Indian arrows. Identical points were used by the Blackfoot, Assiniboine, Comanche, Sioux, Arapaho, Cheyenne, Kiowa, Pawnee, among many others. These points were made from an old rusty barrel hoop, just as they were 160 years ago. These metal points were made by blacksmiths in the 1800’s and were a very valued trade item. These are great for making your very own replica Plains Indian arrows, or for adding to your collection of stone arrowheads to show what was used for hunting bison and fighting enemies once metal was introduced.

This cool primitive pot is made of lizella clay from south Georgia and was hand formed and then fired in a campfire. It has a very small hairline rim crack and another crack that runs for about 1.75 inches along the most bulbous part of the very center, but the cracks are minor. You couldn’t cook in this pot, but it is a nice display piece. Since it has a round bottom, a small ring of grass is included so you can set the pot on a flat surface and it won’t roll around.
This Pueblo Side Notched arrow point is made of grey Texas flint and is a copy of authentic Pueblo arrow points from the southwestern U.S. It’s thin with sharp edges and is capable of taking down deer sized game. I’ve taken deer with identical points. 1 1/2″ long x 3/4″ wide. Free shipping to all U.S. customers.
This pretty little Pueblo Side Notched point is made from a colorful piece of Mookaite jasper from Australia. This little point sports a lot of different colors: Pink on the tip and one corner ear, a small splash of red, and purple in the center of the point. This point also has narrow, deep notches and fine diagonal ribbon flaking. A pretty little point.

This obsidian knife is based on authentic Hupa Indian knives from Northern California. This knife has an obsidian blade set into a handle of Pacific yew. The handle has both the lighter sapwood and darker heartwood. That has significance since the Hupa also made their exquisite paddle bows from Pacific yew. The rounded shape of the knife blade works perfectly with the natural pivot of our wrists to maximize the efficiency of the knife’s ability to remove the skin from large game like deer. Total length of knife is 7 1/4 inches long. Free shipping to all US customers.
THIS RIVERCANE IS BACK IN STOCK BUT I ONLY HAVE 24 RIVERCANE ARROW SHAFTS, SO ORDER QUICKLY.
PLEASE NOTE: The Post Office recently increased their shipping costs on long items like arrow shafts, so that will translate into higher shipping costs. Also, the increase in fuel prices and inflation has forced me to increase prices on my cane shafts to make up for the added expense.
Shoot what Billy shoots…river cane! River cane is one of the best primitive arrow materials available; it’s easy to straighten and flies perfectly when properly matched to a bow. Its hard, waxy coating makes it very resistant to warpage and its density means it’s very durable. Cane is naturally hollow, making it perfect for adding foreshafts that can be tipped with different points to create arrows of wonderful versatility. These river cane arrow shafts are hand selected for uniformity, proper thickness taper and straightness. Rivercane will vary somewhat in wall thickness and spine, so these shafts are cut extra long to allow you to tune each piece of cane to fly well off your particular bow. These cane shafts are for serious big game hunting. They’ve proved deadly on deer, wild pigs, turkeys, and even tough South African Plains game. Click through the photos to see a kudu taken with a single rivercane arrow. That’s all the proof you need.
This beautiful arrow is a spot-on, museum-quality replica of one that’s part of a set of Miwok arrows from central California that are currently held in the Smithsonian’s collections. Every intricate detail of the original arrow is faithfully copied on this replica.
The shaft is made from a beautifully straight Oceanspray shoot. It’s tipped with an obsidian point that copies the unique shape of the obsidian points that were on the original arrows I examined. The point is held with pine pitch glue and then wrapped on with deer sinew.
The fletch is 3 turkey tail feathers that are wrapped on both ends with deer sinew and glued to the shaft with hide glue, just like the originals. The paint design exactly copies the original arrows.
Look closely at the shaft under the feathers and also behind the point…you’ll notice very fine rings sanded into the shaft that resemble threads on a machine screw. These same rings were present on the original arrows, and they’re a very common feature of Miwok arrows, as well as Hupa and Yurok arrows from farther north. These rings are created by sanding with horsetail rush. Creating these grooves is a time-consuming and painstaking operation.

This beautiful replica arrow is a spot-on copy of a set of 3 matched arrows in the Smithsonian’s collection. This arrow copies the originals in every respect.
The shaft is made of a beautifully straight hardwood shoot and it has 3 straight shaft grooves. It’s fletched with 3 turkey wing feathers wrapped front and back with sinew and glued to the shaft with hide glue. The metal point is made from a circular saw blade that’s been blackened and then ground to shape to expose the fresh silver metal along the edges, just like the original point. The point is also held on with a secure wrapping of sinew. The shaft has been painted with orange and green earth pigments I collected and processed into paint….those are NOT store-bought colors. That’s super cool because the earth pigments match the colors on the original arrows perfectly. Shipped in a sturdy PVC pipe to ensure safe delivery to your door. Free shipping to all U.S. customers.
