Hello Chinatiger,
I agree with Kyudohund, those strips look very well prepared as well.
Stephen Selby will correct me if I'm wrong, but I think I recall him saying OK when sinew was advertised here.

I purchased stuff from Tiger sometime ago, his bamboo shafts are great. He's a serious and friendly seller too.

They look quite perfect. Hopefully they are even half as good as they look. Pictures are unfortunately deceiving for time to time.

No need to make them shiny. The inside surface will be roughed out for glue. The outside surface is likely to get processed for wanted thickness and tiller.

Tiger,
Strips look very good, the price is a bit steep though.
What is the reason you don't sell your stuff to Europe anymore?

strips and workers here also cost higher than your imaginatin,so,price remain this,may be when i foind out more resourse,the price will be down,but it is quite difficult,bamboo is cheaper here but i told you why

I understand, but the question still stands. The are many among Atarnos who swear for quality of the bamboo shafts you sell, I'd like to give those a try.
