Why is old mountain bow the best traditioanl bow?

35+ Years of Craftsmanship

For over three and a half decades, Old Mountain has carried forward the tradition of handcrafted bowmaking in every bow we create. Built on skill, care, and respect for the past, our story began in a small workshop with a simple belief: the soul of a bow lies in the hands that shape it.



Craftsmanship in Every Bow

We take pride in crafting each bow by hand, one at a time, with exceptional attention to detail and quality. By dedicating one artisan to each bow, we ensure that every detail, from the curve of the bow to the silk thread wrap, reflects the care, precision, and integrity of true craftsmanship.

high quality materials

At Old Mountain, the journey from raw wood to radiant finish is a ritual—one where science, patience, and artistry collide. While our bows begin with hand-selected bamboo or maple, prized for their density and acoustic clarity, it’s the final stages of finishing that elevate them into heirlooms.
