Wooden Bow Replica – 18cm Die-Cast Metal Bow | The Wanderer's Draw

Solid die-cast zinc alloy, 18cm (7.1"), 52g (1.8 oz) — that's the Wooden Bow replica, shipped free worldwide by BlacksmithSONG. It's the plain, no-frills bow that first lands in the hands of the hero who wakes from a long slumber — no glowing string, no fanfare, just wood grain, taut cord, and whatever's left in a half-empty quiver. We cast it anyway, because every legendary archery career has to start somewhere unglamorous, and because plenty of collectors want the story's opening chapter sitting on the shelf right next to its ending.

The Scene: Campfire at the Edge of the Woods

We built a mossy woodland rest stop for this one — a stone archway standing watch over a modest camp, a blackened kettle hanging above cold coals, and a handful of apples and mushrooms left behind mid-meal. The bow and its arrow lie right where a traveler might have set them down before wandering off to scout the path ahead, string still tensioned, tip still aimed at the tree line. It's a quiet scene for a quiet weapon — nothing dramatic, just the feel of a camp abandoned minutes ago. Read the full forging story for how we built the whole clearing. Every photo on this page is a real shot inside that handcrafted set — no CGI, no renders.

What You're Holding

18cm in the Real World

At 18cm (7.1"), the Wooden Bow replica is roughly the length of a dinner fork — modest, unassuming, and exactly what you'd expect from the humblest bow in the lineup. Stood upright next to a coffee mug, it barely clears the rim. But the 52g (1.8 oz) of solid die-cast zinc alloy gives it more heft in hand than its plain looks let on — there's a reason collectors are surprised the first time they pick it up. The handheld photo above shows the honest scale.

Straight from the Mold

Each Wooden Bow replica is die-cast as a single zinc-alloy body, then hand-finished. The wrapped grip section and the tapered limbs are shaped right into the mold, so the raised texture holds up under a close look years down the line — no worn-off details, no soft edges. The teal accent running along the grip is a hand-applied touch we added purely for visual flair. Every edge and tip stays cast blunt, and the bowstring is fixed permanently in a light draw position rather than left slack. Built for the shelf, not the woods.

Choose Your Display

Bow only, or add a Small Stand (+$2), Large Stand (+$3), or Vertical Stand (+$4) — the Large Stand shows off the full curve of the limbs best, while the Vertical Stand earns its keep if shelf space runs narrow and you'd rather it stand tall near the front of the row. Part of the Courage & Wisdom Blade Vault , and one of every bow we've cast in the workshop so far. If you're chasing something with a bit more shine to sit beside it, there's also the radiant bow every archer wants waiting further down the armory.

Free worldwide tracked shipping (US orders land in 10–14 days), a foam-lined gift box, and a 30-day money-back guarantee — everything you'd expect, nothing you'd have to ask twice about. Not glowing, not enchanted, just 52 honest grams of wood-grain metal that means business.
