I was making a few items recently and realised I get immense pleasure from simple crafts made from nature. As bushcrafters we are often guilty of being kit junkies but I think we should simplify what we do and use natural materials when we can,
I think the pics below may show you what I'm getting at..
Feathers or Vanes?
Wood or Alloy?
Bone or Steel?
What floats your boat, all man made items or purely primitive?
It's sort of hard to make aluminum shafts and razor points. Most archers would have to give up the sport if their sources dried up.
