Experience mastercraftsmanship with the Katalox Bow from the workshop of Rodney Mohr

Sustainably crafted. Professionally performed.

Hors Concours gold-winning bow maker Rodney Mohr is a leading mastercraftsman of bows made from sustainable materials like Katalox. He has made bows for famed players the world over; now is a chance to own a fine collectable and investment-grade bow made by one of the greatest bow makers of our time.

Bow makers are in search of  quality  alternative woods as accessibility and the legality of Pernambuco stocks  declines. Katalox , like cream, has risen to the top of acceptable alternatives. Katalox is commonly referred to as Royal Mexican ebony. The lanky tree’s habitat ranges from Mexico south through central America to the northern tier of South America. It’s stiff, strong wood has been attractive to wood workers looking for alternatives to threatened ebony species. Magically, the physical characteristics of this wood manage to satisfy both woodworkers and bowmakers. Rodney Mohr has deftly manipulated the physical strength to create a supple, responsive stick. Like Pernambuco, each stick has its own unique character. 

Every material is fully documented and travel-compliant. No permits. No border complications. No compromises on sound.

• Craftsmanship: Rodney Mohr's meticulous attention to detail and years of experience result in a bow that not only looks exquisite but also performs exceptionally well.

• Functional Art: The Katalox Bow is not just a piece of art but also a fully functional bow, designed for accuracy and performance.

• Limited Edition: Each Katalox Bow by Rodney Mohr workshop is a limited edition, making it a valuable collector's item for bow enthusiasts.
