Turul Hungarian Horse Bow – Authentic Historical Recurve Bow Inspired by the Magyar Ancestors
Authentic Historical Form Inspired by the Hungarian Conquerors
The Turul Hungarian Horse Bow is one of the most historically authentic traditional bows in the Kassai collection.
Inspired by the bows used by the Hungarian conqueror ancestors, the Turul preserves both the characteristic shape and construction details of historical Hungarian horse bows while incorporating modern materials for durability and reliability.
Unlike many modern interpretations of traditional bows, the Turul was created with a strong emphasis on historical authenticity. It reflects the appearance and spirit of the bows carried by the mounted warriors who shaped early Hungarian history.
For archers who value historical accuracy, traditional craftsmanship and authentic design, the Turul offers a unique shooting experience.

TURUL- HUNGARIAN TRADITIONAL RECURVE BOW FROM KASSAI
A Rare Exception in the Kassai Philosophy
Kassai’s well-known philosophy has always been:
Not to follow the ancestors, but to follow what the ancestors followed.
For this reason, many Kassai bows are modern interpretations inspired by historical traditions rather than direct reproductions.
The Turul is one of the rare exceptions.
Its design intentionally follows the authentic appearance of historical Hungarian bows and incorporates construction techniques inspired by archaeological and historical research.
This makes the Turul one of the most sought-after bows among traditionalists and historical archery enthusiasts.

Authentic Horn Construction Techniques
One of the most remarkable aspects of the Turul is the recreation of ancient horn application techniques.
The angle and placement of the horn components allow:
- Improved weight distribution
- Reduced overall bow weight
- Faster arrow speed
- Increased shooting efficiency
- Exceptionally quiet shooting characteristics
The refined fit between the horn elements and the bending sections contributes to both performance and authenticity.
The result is a bow that not only looks historically correct but also delivers excellent shooting performance.
