If you want to hunt with a piece of history, look no further than this bow. This museum-quality replica Northern Paiute bow is a fully functional big game hunting weapon. It pulls 45 lbs at 20 inches of draw and is capable of taking large game with properly matched arrows. This bow is based on authentic archaeological examples housed in museums, as well as bow fragments recovered from caves around Winnemucca Lake in NW Nevada.
This bow is 46 inches long and is made from a juniper limb. It’s backed with sinew and has a 2-ply sinew string. The tips and grip are wrapped with braintanned buckskin. This snappy little bow is a perfect copy of the short blind hunting bows the Northern Paiute people used for hunting deer and elk at close range. Their hunting blinds were small and inconspicuous to minimize alerting the deer of their presence. The Paiute knew when the animals moved and how to get close. All they needed was a weapon that could cover the last few yards in a flash, and this bow fit that need perfectly. It could be easily concealed within the cramped confines of a small brush or rock blind, and its short profile delivers their obsidian tipped arrows with blinding speed. My own experiments with identical bows have proved that these little poison slingers pack a lethal punch and can deliver their arrows with plenty of killing power. Small game aren’t safe either. With regular practice and matched arrows, this bow can also deliver pinpoint accuracy on small game at distance as well. This bow is light as a feather in the hand, making it effortless to carry for hours or even days on end.
Shipped to you in a sturdy PVC pipe to ensure safe delivery to your door. The PVC pipe also serves as a storage/transport container to protect the bow when traveling. Care and Instruction sheet included with this bow. Free shipping within the U.S.

This replica Northern Paiute knife copies authentic prehistoric knives found in caves and rockshelters in the high deserts of the Great Basin of the western U.S. This knife has a blade of opaque black obsidian set into a handle of western juniper. It’s set in place with epoxy that’s been colored to look like the black pine pitch glue that firmly held the authentic knives of the Northern Paiute. Now, I could have set the blade in with real pitch glue and it’s usually not a problem, but let’s say the postman delivered the knife to your front door and it sat in the hot sun for several hours, the blade could heat up enough that it would soften the pine pitch and the blade could, possibly fall out. I’ve never had that issue, but it happened to a friend of mine, so I decided to use black colored epoxy to secure the blade just to be safe. So here you go…a perfectly functional obsidian knife that’s right out of the prehistoric past. This knife is perfect for skinning large game like deer and elk.

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. Free shipping within the U.S.

If you don’t have access to the famed Osage orange wood, now you can grow your own! These packs of 10 Osage seeds come from the fruits of premium Midwestern Osage orange trees and are ready to be sprouted to create your own crop of bow wood. Only the plumpest, fattest seeds are selected to ensure they produce the healthiest trees.
Osage is very easy to grow. Simply plant them about 1 inch deep in moist potting soil and seedlings should sprout within 10-14 days. I move them to progressively bigger pots as they grow and keep them in pots for the first year. I let them have full sun during the spring and summer but I bring them indoors before the first frost and I keep them indoors during their first winter, though I try to keep them in cooler rooms so they’ll stay dormant. Occasional watering with plant food like Miracle Gro will really give them a head start in growth. In the spring of the second year I transplant them outside into holes that are a 50/50 mix of potting soil and local soil. Water them well after the transplant and keep an eye on them for the next few weeks, as the leaf color will indicate if there’s a problem. If the leaves begin turning yellow, water them with a root stimulator, sometimes called “Quick Start”. That should get the roots growing and will get them transitioned into their new home very quickly.
Osage is very hardy and can survive in all kinds of soils and environmental conditions. Once established it grows surprisingly quickly. Osage can be left to grow on its own, but it tends to branch profusely. It’s best to prune any small branches and suckers off the trunk so it grows a straight trunk with no branches. This forces it to grow upward rather than out, and will result in much straighter, bow quality trunks within a few years. Pruned trees will also reach sexual maturity sooner and should begin producing fruits within 5-7 years. Free shipping to all U.S. customers.

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 are made from an old rusty barrel hoop, just as many were made 160 years ago. These metal points were also made by blacksmiths in the early 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 replica Apache arrow copies numerous authentic Apache arrows in the Smithsonian that were collected in the late 1800’s. This arrow is identical to the others I offer here, but this one has a metal point and the foreshaft is painted black.
This arrow has a reed main shaft with a hardwood foreshaft that’s painted black and it’s tipped with an iron point made from an old barrel hoop. This arrow is fletched with turkey wing and tail feathers and all wrappings are real deer sinew. About half the Apache arrows I examined were tipped with metal points, and the other half were stone tipped, indicating the Apaches were still making and using stone arrowheads, but would also employ metal points when they could acquire them.

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.
