The Nanticoke Atlatl was inspired by the classic Southwestern atlatl with a double leather looped keeper strap. It has a knuckled handgrip for better control and a tropical hardwood button spur inserted and cemented into the head of the atlatl. We use certain kinds of tropical hardwoods such as Lignum Vitae and Argentine Ebony that are extremely hard. They all contain a waxy resin that acts as a lubricant against the knock dimple. All these features are assembled on a shaft of fine hardwood specially chosen for grain and strength. The entire length of the shaft is laced with artificial sinew for even more strength, its sound reducing characteristics, and added esthetic appeal. The Nanticoke is an unbeatable combination of speed, stability and durability. This moderately priced, yet attractively designed atlatl is a joy to shoot. Used for both target shooting and hunting, this outstanding atlatl has scored high in the ISAC contests over the last few years. A best seller, there are probably more Nanticokes carried in the forests and fields of North America than any other atlatl made. Economical, because of its simple design, this atlatl nonetheless meets the standards of craftsmanship of our premium atlatls, making it a good value.
