After quite a long google search, I can't find any one piece recurves that match the distinct shape of the riser that I am looking at from production stills. It may indeed be custom. No bow I have seen matches the shape of the riser just above her hand. I haven't seen a single other recurve that has a perfectly smooth sight window (or I guess it's perfectly smooth because it has no sight window).


So far the most similar results that I've turned up are custom bow makers, but given the simplicity of the design, it really shouldn't be hard to have a bowmaker replicate one for me. Obviously I'll need to come up with a set of working dimensions for the riser and the overall length, but I think if I get in touch with the right person, it should easily be doable.

I am going to keep looking though when I get time. you never know what I may sniff out on the internet.

Are you going to be making the mockingjay bow anytime soon. I've contacted a custom bow maker and he said he's interested in making and adding it to his product line. But if you don't want a fully functional bow contact martin and tell them you want a #15 lb draw weight and for them to make it all black and when you get it add the finishing paint details and shrink wrap like the buffalo and get a short string.

Has anyone found anything closer to the vanes/fletching? I have messaged Alex a few times but unfortunately he hasn't replied.

The vanes used in the film are the easton diamond vanes.
