Reliability & Adaptability
Each bow is individually handcrafted by master bowyer Sergey Tolochko using premium laminate limbs and carefully selected natural and synthetic materials. Every recurve goes through a full tillering process to ensure even limb bend, consistent draw weight, and smooth stack-free performance across the draw length. Kadys Bows bows are built to last decades with proper care.
The Lineage
The Orhan Turkish recurve bow traces its lineage to the Ottoman Empire’s celebrated composite bow tradition — a weapon that helped shape the medieval world. Crafted in the style of the Ottoman court archers, these bows combine a deeply reflexed profile with responsive, fast-shooting limbs designed for both mounted and ground archery.
