I have an old black widow recurve that has a split limb. I’ve had this bow for years...picked it up at a yard sale in its current condition. I called black widow years ago and they said it was an old model that is no longer in production and they didn’t have replacement limbs. It’s made of metal and limbs are wood. I’d like to give it to someone either for their collection or if they have the skill to make a new set of limbs for it. I know there are some guys on here that make their own bows but not sure if anyone can make new limbs. I should be at paint creek this year so if anyone on here would like it, let me know. Don’t want anything for it, just want to find it a good home.

If nothing else, you could shoot Black Widow a message with pics of the limbs and see what they say. Not sure if it's something they would repair or not, but I definitely think they could give you some info on the bow.

I called them years ago, they said it’s an old model and they don’t have replacement limbs for it. Only options is to either make new limbs of find someone who has a set laying around in their garage or basement.
