This is an item that you rarely see for sale. Traditionally, arrow shaft straighteners were heated in a fire until very hot, and then warped arrow shafts were drawn across the stones groove to make the shaft more pliable. The wooden shaft could then be easily straightened. Within seconds the shaft would cool and hold to its new position.These were more commonly used with shafts made from reeds like phragmites. I have used these stones to straighten phragmites shafts, and have been astounded by how well they work. It is like magic!
This straightener has been signed, dated and preheated. The groove already has a beautiful polish.
Shipping and handling in the Continental U. S. is $8.30. |
