The Armory

Instruments Of The Restoration

Everything the fourth feather requires, and a few things it merely rewards, made or chosen by the only account that judged them honestly. The vanes are for sale. The record is not.

QuadVane Synergy Matrix™ Fletchings The Foundation

Set To The Fourth Standard

QuadVane Synergy Matrix™ Fletchings

★★★★★ (1,204)

The vane we make because the catalogs would not. Four feathers, set to the geometry the record specifies. The exact angle is not printed on the package; some measurements are kept, not sold. Restoration begins here.

$24.00 / four sets of four
Directionally-Indexed Gold-Band Fletch Indexed

Oriented Before It Ships

Directionally-Indexed Gold-Band Fletch

★★★★★ (388)

Each vane is oriented and broken in before it reaches you, the gold band set to face the target so the arrow leaves the rest already in agreement with itself. The effect is not visible to the eye. The eye is not what we are tuning.

$90.00 / dozen
Reynolds Harmonic Turbulator Tape The Abandoned Method

Trips The Boundary Layer

Reynolds Harmonic Turbulator Tape

★★★★☆ (642)

A thin strip wrapped a quarter inch ahead of the fletching, tripping the laminar flow into a turbulent sheath before the vanes meet the air. Our own engineers could not fully confirm the effect. We hold that this is precisely why the industry stopped selling it.

$19.00 / roll
Arch-Wizard Helical Jig Clamp Helical-True

Sets The True Twist

Arch-Wizard Helical Jig Clamp

★★★★★ (210)

Sets the sacred two-and-a-half to three degrees of helical the broadhead requires and the catalogs no longer recommend. Those who shoot a vane straight may correct the error with the offset tool, sold separately. We make no apology for the distinction.

$89.00
Ultra-EFOC Penetration Kit Beyond Standard

Past The Point The Catalogs Round Away

Ultra-EFOC Penetration Kit

★★★★★ (97)

A graduated set of point weights to drive your front-of-center past nineteen percent, past thirty, and onward, with a scale accurate to a tenth of a grain and a worksheet that does not round. The penetration is real. The decimals the catalogs discard are the decimals that decide it.

$149.00
The Fourth Feather — The Complete Course The Course

Twelve Seasons · One Standard

The Fourth Feather — The Complete Course

★★★★★ (44)

From the first principles of restoration through the discipline of the bench, the Keeper leads you, in his own hand, back to the fourth feather. Lifetime access to the record, the medallion of the order, and one private hour in which he will tell you to add weight forward and index your nock. The teaching is the gift. The standard is the work.

$1,200.00
The Ancient & Honorable Guild — Membership The Order

An Order Of The Record

The Ancient & Honorable Guild — Membership

★★★★★ (4)

Standing within an order that keeps the account the industry abandoned. The scroll, the medallion, the inner circle, and certification to the Fourth Standard. We have certified an archer who has never missed and a houseplant that has never shot, and we hold both decisions to be sound.

$49.00 / month
The Personalized Spine Reading By The Keeper

Read At The Bench

The Personalized Spine Reading

★★★★★ (512)

The Keeper reads your draw, your length, your bare shaft, and the things your form would rather not admit, then tells you what your spine has been telling you all along. The reading nearly always ends with more weight forward. The arrow asked for it first.

$40.00

The Label

We Print What The Catalogs Will Not.

The count, the standard, and what we keep withheld — set down plainly. The catalogs print a marketing line and a barcode. Decide for yourself which is the more honest label.

The angle is kept, not sold; restoration is a discipline, not a disclosure. What the industry omits from its labels is itself a kind of record.

What The Restored Report

★★★★★
The bare shaft landed where it landed and told me the truth about my spine in front of everyone. It was not a pleasant reading. It was an accurate one. I went home and changed my arrows.
Marisol E.Apprentice of the Order
★★★★★
I weigh every component to a tenth of a grain and index every nock, because the record asks it of me and the record has never once been wrong in a way I could prove.
Greg “Grain” HalvorsenKeeper of the Bench
★★★★
I wrapped the turbulator tape and the arrow flew true. I cannot prove the tape was responsible. Neither can anyone who removed it from the catalogs. We are not on equal footing.
