Nice looking bow--it's a wonder that more don't know about him. 'Course if they did, doubtful he'd have a 4 week turn-around very long!

I'm not a bowyer, but it seems that with the wedge he's basically making his recurves static tipped, or at least semi-static? Some of the fastest recurves I've ever seen were static tipped. That's also the same thing Marc (Chek-Mate) does with the Crusader (longbow), Thunderbird, and Longhorn (flatbows). It works for sure. I've heard it called several things--double taper, stepped taper, timed taper--never a wedge though.
