Trust me when I say I have watched all the videos on how the composite bows are made. Especially the Turkish and Mongolian type bows. There is no other video I found which has this amount of detail and elaboration. Thank you so much for taking the time to make such a masterpiece.
@@andiswerkstatt-ow4uw I still see something is missing on bow shape as this was not that our Tamil older ancient used.. It was really super but there is something missing in your bow..
I was thinking the same thing. I've been wanting to make one of these bows for a long time and this video is definitely one of the best showing just how to do it.

This is the first horn bow video i have seen actually showing the flexibility of the horns before applying them to the bow. Absolutely amazing build. Thank you for sharing your craftsmanship 🤩👌🙏
i just want to really thank you for using a period accurate glue. i watch a lot of craftsmanship youtube and every time i see someone use the chemical compound resin it breaks my heart a little.
У нас, у Башкир, лук обвивался полностью берестой в самом конце, не в декоративных целях. Береста как кожа для лука, она в воде не гниёт (его можно долго использовать в непогоду, дождь и снег), а также поддерживает оптимальную влажность внутри, не давая рассыхаться композиту. Привет из Урала!))
Brilliant work! I have heard in general terms how such bows are made, but I have never seen the technology completely. Thank you, it was very interesting
@@fidenemini111 That is not Japanese. Japan just makes them by carving bamboo. Those composite bows are made in Korea. Japan is called the country of swords. China is called the country of spears. Korea is called the country of bows.
man I never ever comment on videos, but I can't help it. The level of attention and dedication is worthy of anyone's respect, but most of all sticking to the traditional materials and techniques is what gives the greatest joy to the purist in me. Words can't do it justice so I'll leave it at that. I wish you a long happy life and the health needed to continue your projects and thank for sharing with us.
What an amazing, painstaking, skilful piece of work that is. Watching this makes me realise what valuable and treasured possessions such hand made instruments would be. I imagine that such a bow could last a lifetime or longer and they must have been - and must still be - very expensive to make. Truly a master craftsman at work.
You can use the tip of the horn to make an archer ring. Since the thumb is used in Eastern bows, a special ring is used for it. We call it Zihgir. Some men in Turkiye still use these rings as jewelry. Those used as jewelry are mostly made of silver or precious stones. But the one I use for archery is made of buffalo horn. Really much better than metal, leather and plastic ones. It fits perfectly because it was made specifically for me.
Man, that was a smashingly cool archery fabrication show! As an archer I appreciate a bow with speed and that soft thumb sound at release. Your bow looks like a real pleasure to shoot and and has that soft thump sound at release . Very nice work!
I never knew anything about bows, but this video helped me appreciate the work that goes into it. Incredible piece, I commend you for the time you took to post your steps.
I have no experience with bows, shooting or making them, but even I can recognize the exquisite detail and craftsmanship that went into this. Well done.
It’s amazing how you build this. It’s also fascinating people have been building this bows so many years ago. It’s so advanced compare to long bow. The sound of the string is like nothing else to compare.

Fascinating craftsmanship based upon millennials old techniques and materials from the Far East and Steppe regions. The original horn bows functioned wonderfully in desert regions but came apart in the humid regions. They were remarkably different than this example. I suspect that as with other surviving ancient crafts there were necessary modifications to adapt to changing situations. There area many online histories of the original horn bows and may be some videos of historic recreations. This tutorial is a welcomed documentation that the ancient ways are still viable. My greatest thank to this remarkable bowyer.
Hi The reason why bows break in humid regions is that the glue used in bows was obtained from a fish species and that glue dissolved when it came into contact with water.
This was so well done. I'm just looking at this for a kind of research I'm doing among other videos and online encyclopedias about bow construction and the various archers in history. This was so detailed and so impressive I was literally entranced. I would have to watch it a dozen times just to get all the steps you used correct. Not only that, you really made sure the bow was absolutely beautiful. Bravo!

Does it keep you awake at night pondering how this process was developed so long ago. And the understanding, skill and craftsmanship those people had. You are very knowledgeable and skilled. Thank you
That is a Korean gakgung. Gag means horn and gung means bow. Water buffalo horn, mulberry, bamboo, cow tendon... and fish bladder are used as adhesive. Korea has been famous for bows since ancient times, Japan for swords... and China boasted unique manufacturing methods and usage methods for spears. Ancient China restricted the import of water buffaloes in order to limit the production of bows, which played a central role in Korea's military power. Korea does not have water buffalo horns. It is a mystery how a country without water buffalo horns could ingeniously develop such production techniques. However, the technology using wedges is Japanese. They use long bamboo-shaped bows. Korea uses a different jig type.
That sounds more like a whip than a bow. I've only seen a mountain mahogany/ bighorn sheep / elk sinew Shoshone artifact in northern California. It was in a museum called "the trees of mystery" . In the redwoods. It was smaller than yours. I've never had the privilege of working such materials. But I do have a sweet recipe for sinew backed juniper.
Wow. Just came across this and cannot stop watching. The skill in your process is incredible. I can only imagine the feeling of holding that bow in your hands at the finish. Beautiful ❤️
To think these ancient Central Asian nomads put so much effort into a bow! It was adopted from East to West! Tombstones near Hadrian's Wall depict Syrian archers in the Roman army with such bows!
WOW! I just couldn't turn my head around for a bit! It was awesome and at the same time it was so meticulous that I thought it was done now and then another detail then another and it goes on. I just felt like you have been doing this for millions of years, what an experience you have man. Really appreciate the work and effort you did, never seen such fine workmanship! ❤❤👌👌
I just watched this for like the 5th time. The level of dedication and craftsmanship is so inspiring! I'm going to try to put sinew and birchbark on my next Osage bow!

Being very passionate and taking every detail with perfection and the whole build is an honor to watch. As a person who appreciates craftmanship, this is just amazing.

I just watched 3 Turkish videos, although they are making traditional Turkish bows, they were using modern materials and processes except the wood part, yours was the best and most detailed and traditional so far. Also watched a Japanese one where you shared the method to bend the bow. You should use the ring to complete the method of releasing the arrow, thank you.
That is a Korean kakgung. Gakg means horn and kakgung means bow. Water buffalo horn, mulberry tree, bamboo, cow tendon... and some fish swim bladder are used as adhesive. Korea has been famous for bows since ancient times, Japan for swords... and China boasted unique manufacturing methods and usage methods for spears. Ancient China restricted the import of water buffalo to limit the production of bows, which played a central role in Korea's military power. Korea does not have water buffalo horn.

몽골은 복합궁의 재료가 되는 여러 나무와 바다생선의 부레를 이용한 본드나 여러 접착기술등을 구하기 힘들기 때문에 복합궁의 재작 방식 자체를
생각할 수 없는 환경 입니다
Ein absolutes Meisterwerk Andi!!!
Grossen Respekt… Daniel
Danke!!!
I wish you more subscribers, your stuff is amazing! Your mastery is incredible and everything is filmed really well👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Dude has 2 videos and each one is well above 100k. I think he will do fine if he keeps making videos this good.
Making process is similar to Korean traditional bow. Isn't it?
Very similarly, but too weak...
Massively underrated
The techniques you used to shape the bow were very unique to me,
What a beautiful craftsmanship ,very nice bow
This was one of the most beautiful things I’ve ever seen. Astounding craftsmanship
Hello there, this is very impressive. Is there any way i could take a look at the measurements for the woods/mould ?
Most impressive. Especially the patience needed from start to finish. 🙏🏽
romans never stood a chance against this technology
Which technology would that be?, the band saw, the plane?, the jigs? The cameras filming it?, seriously, you'd not stand a chance against a Roman street urchin, never mind a soldier... Technology is a crutch, it leads to tyrant's,dependency chains, key logs and unstable tipping points..
This man deserves a medal! Patience and skill. Well done!
Ganz großes Kompliment!! Ich habe schon einige Videos gesehen, welche einen Hornbogen gebaut haben aber noch nie mit einer solchen Perfektion. Die vorbereiteten Hilfskonstruktionen bzw. Werkzeuge zeigt von langen Vorbereitungen und probieren.. Toll!
Ich würde gerne einen solchen Bogen kaufen. Ist das überhaupt möglich? LG. Herbert
Lieber Herbert, ganz herzlichen Dank für Deine Komplimente 😃! Ich verkaufe keine Bögen. Das Bogenbauen soll mein Hobby bleiben. LG Andi
Lieber Andi’s, ich hätte bitte noch eine Frage: was verwendest du für ein Holz? LG. Herbert
Hallo Herbert, Ich verwende Bergahorn. Für mehr Infos kannst Du die Untertitel im Video einschalten. Gibt es in Deutsch und Englisch. LG Andi
Danke!
Mr. LG ,Samsung is better than
Невероятное мастерство! Ваша работа, просто удивительна!
Shree Ram would be proud 👏
it's unbelievable that this will take that much strain without breaking
holy art bro, I don't even have words to define your level of excellence, congratulations and thank you again, clearly you study hard to make these videos, the level of complexity of this bow is very high, divine.
I would absolutely treasure that bow forever 🥵🤯
