The 3rivers Traditional Only Taper Tool 23/64 In. is a precision archery tool designed for traditional archers and wood arrow craftspeople who demand accuracy in arrow preparation.

Whether you're a seasoned arrow maker or a traditional archer maintaining your own equipment, this tool eliminates guesswork and delivers professional results every time you use it.

This taper tool cuts precise 5-degree point tapers and 11-degree nock tapers into wood arrows, the angles proven optimal for traditional archery performance and spine consistency. The 23/64-inch sizing accommodates standard wood arrow diameters and softwood species, which are preferred by many traditional archers for their forgiving properties and authentic performance. The compact design—measuring just 5.25 inches in length and weighing only 0.05 pounds—ensures easy handling and precise control during the cutting operation. The tool's quality construction delivers clean, accurate cuts that reduce preparation time while maintaining the straightness and flight integrity of your arrows.

This taper tool is ideal for traditional archers, bow hunters, and DIY arrow makers who work exclusively with wood shafts and value the craftsmanship involved in arrow assembly. It performs best on softer wood species such as pine and Douglas fir, which are common choices for traditional arrow building. The tool's standardized taper angles ensure compatibility with traditional broadheads and field points, as well as conventional nock designs used across most traditional archery setups. Whether you're preparing arrows for target shooting, hunting, or competition, the 3rivers Traditional Only Taper Tool delivers the precision and reliability that serious archers expect.
