it is probably the most calming and relaxing video I've seen this year. It expresses the whole long-term process filled with spirituality. It is not about "making", "doing" or "producing". That's a process of divine creation. Thank you Stiliyan. I hope I could ever have a chance to shoot any of your Bows.
Way late, but I have to agree. I'm not really spiritual or religious in any way, and yet whenever I loose arrows, some part of me isn't having fun, rather resonating with what feels like an ancient discipline or even instinct passed down since times immemorable. This is probably why I cannot tolerate shooting modern recurve and compound bows. P.S.; also interested in starting bowyery in the future. I see it as an art form in which one erects a vessel for their very will to be instilled into and loosed forth from.
I made a long bow when I was in college using only a knife and a hand planer. I read about the process on the internet, but that was way before youtube. I had several failed attempts before I succeeded. My apartment was filled with wood shavings and I sliced my hand pretty good in the process. It was so frustrating, but I was obsessed with making my own bow. I did not make my own string or arrows though. This video is the most impressive thing I have seen in a long time.
That was an amazing glimpse into the artistic yet hyper functional tool that historically provided protection and food for centuries, very impressive.... so please don't think that I'm critical, I have never made a bow so I'm mean zero disrespect when I ask... but I'm curious about the center 'knuckle' area... would having the 'V' shape groove where the two outer ends meet the 'Diamond' more reddish center hardwood be stronger if the 'V' of the ends were facing the shooter and parallel of direction of the arrow instead of perpendicular to direction of travel? perhaps the natural glue used is more than sufficient to keep from failure.... just curious. thank you fir sharing your skills, it was stunning! -Jay from ATL
@@StiliyanStefanov Good afternoon, maybe it’s already night, I’m writing to you from the Caucasus Republic of Dagestan. I’ve already watched your video five times, and I would like to ask you, are you using acacia?
I absolutely love this video! I can’t count how many times I’ve watched it over and over. Bow making is truly a method of reflection of ones self. Every step, every operation and how it’s approached is very telling to where the mind was and where it’s going. Very connecting and grounding. This video captures it all! Brilliant.
The video was truly profound. I suppose I was expecting a history buff replicating the Mongolian bow, but I found someone striving to become part of the process. A fantastic artisan.
I came home from work tonight all stressed, after spending 20 minutes watching you creating this wonderful bow in silence except for the sounds of the tools and nature I am now relaxed. Thanks for a great post.
I am inspired to harvest a suitable log from a recently downed (last summer) Hickory tree. I have about 20 pieces of dried back sinew from Caribou harvested by some native friends in Northern Quebec. I have been using it to sew my moccasins and other clothing. I have been planning to use it to back a bow and today's viewing (I've watched this video several times) has motivated me to go tomorrow and harvest a log from the tree. I need to cut it up any way. I have estimated that the tree should yield a couple dozen bow staves. Peace.
Stiiliyan, That was such a calming video to watch. The production of this video is amazing. You just opened up and shared your many years of experience and knowledge to the world with out a single word. You have taught me more and have answered so many questions that I been searching for without a single word. Just amazingly great. The crackling sound of the fire, the crunch of wood being chopped, cut rasped, scored was so refreshing and tranquil. I love to watched your old world art fold out to making a beautiful bow. I'd love to see the same magic making of shafts, fletch and points.
Kaesie Garcia, thank you very much! I'm so glad when someone understands me! The crack of fire and sownd of work are with us miliom years. It is music for me. Thank you for watching! Next more videos.
It is one of those experiences: you did not know you were looking for such a thing; until you found it. Then, it was so obvious. Question for Stillyan: I am guessing that as well as being decorative, that the birch bark lends a good deal of waterproofing. Is that the purpose? Functional and decorative?
It makes perfect sense to me. Almost every culture in human history developed a bow and most of those cultures never met or influenced each other. I believe that bow as a weapon is somehow wired into our mind and anyone can make one, you just have to figure out how some woods "react" to cutting, bending, heating and cooling down.
What an excellent display of craftsmanship. I have not seen this style of bow made without horn on the belly so I found your video to be very informative.
Stiliyan Stefanov - Tudo da sua experiencia com arcos, nada é aplicado de técnicas atuais para balancear um arco, você o faz no olho, no seu trabalho na sua arte e ver os mílimetros, Centímetros e etc, você vê tudo, tem o que um artista precisa ter, o dom de ver, enxergar. Obrigado e parabéns!! :)
This was a real pleasure to watch, Stiliyan. No commentary, and no unnecessary egocentric bullshit. Birds are chirping, sound of the wood cracking, nature all around, and a craftsman who enjoys it and appreciates. As for the commentary, some people don't need explanation on "how to" in order to gain knowledge. I believe a craftsman soul lies within them, and some things... should stay between craftsmen. Pozdrav ot suseda!
A beautiful video and great demonstration of bow building. Thanks for all your time and effort. It is however not what I was taught a Mongol bow is though. Bamboo core with a diamond shaped horn laminate on the belly with sinew back all glued together with hide glue(or rabbit glue) a protein derived from various animal parts boiled down and often crystallized then pounded to a fine consistency and then re-hydrated(though self bows with sinew backing may have been used for hunting). "Horse bows" were about a meter long but of considerable pull. It was this glue and technique that led to the eventual downfall of the Mongols as the glue could not withstand the high temperatures or perhaps it was the constitution of the Mongol peoples as some historians have said that the heat caused disease. The birch wrapping he applies here was to provide some limited protection from the elements. I know of only one maker that (commercially) makes these bows today in Canada with a couple of year wait and hefty price tags. My bow making has been limited to reproductions of sporting crossbows of the 16th century.
Im learning myself. I build them for my son who is 5 to learn how to craft. Latest straight 1 piece bow flies for about 100 meters. We just go to the woods, cut a stave and start from there. He loves it.
patience is the key,that and picking the correct wood,i'm Cherokee and here in America we use bodark wood,it is very powerful for the limbs,the arrows take the most time,patience is its own reward,thank you for your time to show your skill
That bow is a work of art and watching you craft it is a pleasure. I wish I had the skills and capability to do the sort of thing you do. Though, that camera-work, editing and lack of captions is frustrating.
I am making bows as well ,out of wood,but this bow is superb,I mean the details and the patience for this is incredible. Keep up the good work and may I suggest for you to make a crossbow as well?
There is something truly beautiful in making things with your bare hands... Even when these things are used to kill people, thus serving their purpose, they are still beautiful. I feel real respect for people who can make things with their own hands...
The sounds of the stove fire reminds me of my Grandfather house. He's the one that got me into shooting bows, when I was 5. It's always been a passion for me. I had around 20 bows. Until our house caught fire and lost everything. What sucks the most is my Grandfather bow was destroyed in the fire. It hurt me the most. I can't ever get that one back. The rest weren't that inportion. They can be replaced. Thank you for taking the time to show us what you go through and what it takes to make a bow. The time it take. That can't ever be shown in a video. I was wondering how and what your using to make the glue for the bow?
@@StiliyanStefanov this video is old but I hope you answer. The white layer with thin black spots that you cover the bow with at the end. Is that bone? I have heard the Mongols used birch, bone and sinew to make their bows and use fish glue to glue it together. Also what is the draw weight on the bow?
Left me with a heck of a lot of questions. What type and how to make the glue? What type of wood? How it was cured? On and on. Highlights why verbal communication is so important. Take care. Doug
What I was taught is a 'doubled recurver' bow. That is how I was taught to string the bow, using my leg to help with bending the limbs back; this was more than 50 years ago, I have no idea how students are told to do it today. Lovely pesudo 'book matched' birch bark.
I'm an american guy who has been learning to make simple selfbows for about 4 years. I wish I had spent that time with a master craftsman learning Korean methods.
WOW 6 years gone and I just discover your channel. The bow came out great and I was watching how long it took you to create one! the longer is better cheers.
That was poetry man the actual way to make a Mongol bow took years passed down in the family there bows top of the range bro u ain't far off hats of to you dude
The Mongols made the bows compound, composing rags and living animals ... there are few trees in the steppe, and even more flexible, except for a handle.
Have you ever thought that craftsmen created all this with ease in past and it was common knowledge and passed on to the younger generation by their elders.... Thank you Sir.
It looks as if it may need some adjustment to improve the final pull strength - which you've probably cured by now, but over all - AMAZING JOB my friend. You are a true craftsman!
@@StiliyanStefanov A LOT of people over-use the term and title of "craftsman." But you sir ARE THE REAL DEAL.. My prayer is that you will justifiably enjoy countess hours relishing in the fruits of your labors, and have found a worthy place to hang that bow in your home, and that it will one day be passed by you to a second deserving owner (or museum) who will also cherish and protect it as they should. Peace be with you my friend...
Hello First of all I like this video and I watched it over and over again till it made want to make my own bow Second if you don't mind can you tell me the name of the wood you used it making the how and what was the material you put on the bow before sanding it ? Thank you

Great upload. This is my favorite self-made bow video. No extraneous fluff or fill, just spirit, craftsmanship and poetry in motion.
Thank you!

It's funny how with all modern weapons at our disposal this still strikes a chord deep within all of us.

@@tomislavobrovac3257 ..i agreed with u sir
What tree is he using
Nobody can make an "AR" by hand conventionally; everyone would be able to make a bow.
coz the ammo is easier to make
if you are in a rush with limited
tools you can build one w knife
A true Bulgarian. A true creator and master....Само поклон към такива майстори..
Благодаря!
Thank you for taking the time to demonstrate the process rather than just jump to the final product. This has been very informative.
Thank you!
Most enjoyable! Superior crafting and beautiful. I'm glad this art form is not lost!
What an excellent display of craftsmanship. I have not seen this style of bow made without horn on the belly so I found your video to be very informative.
Althpifh horn added makes it stronger its still a nice bow

Great video. Beautiful bow. Nice to watch a craftsman at work without the annoying music so prevalent in most videos
Artist with a love for his work. The birch bark finish detail made the bow a beauty to behold.
Thank you! The birch bark acting for water protection, but a beauty too.

Great video, Stiliyane! I thoroughly enjoyed it. You, and the person behind the camera have very good art skills. Thank you!
Thank you!
Videos like this help me stay motivated to continue making bows. Thank you.
Thank you!
Before seeing him string the bow I thought; "doesn't the sinew go on the tension side of the bow?" I was amazed at how he recurved it back on itself.
There is something truly beautiful in making things with your bare hands...
Even when these things are used to kill people, thus serving their purpose, they are still beautiful.
I feel real respect for people who can make things with their own hands...

Fantastic!!!

There is honesty in silence.
I wonder if any one of these 1.2K people who gave a thumbs down have a better way making a Mongolian sinew backed bow
The Mongols made the bows compound, composing rags and living animals ... there are few trees in the steppe, and even more flexible, except for a handle.
horn and sinew was common
Great work and beautiful bow!

A brilliant video of a beautiful craft, though some description of what he is using and why would be nice
So I said to my lady wife, could I have the sitting room for a couple of days, I want to make a bow! I'm sleeping in the woodshed now.
