Hello,

I bought a bow here in Sweden from a salesman.
He mentioned that the bow came from England, is there anyone that can confirm this, and give me some more details of the bow?

I made the grip myself, so you have to think that away...

That's an interesting design. The only person I saw make this design was Jaap KJppedreyer; but he used bamboo composite and this bow seems to be glass fibre.

Ok, and yes, the outer layer is made from glass fibre.

I will likely meet the seller in a near future, and I will thene try to find out more about the bow.
I'll be back whene I know more...

It looks a bit like the junior hunter from Quicks:

It really does, but mine is slightly less curved.

I realized that, but I wondered about the different bracing height, too. Just an idea, as Quicks is an English company.

Scroll down to "Modern Mongol" Seems about right.
