Great shuttle
"Definitely a great shuttle and I'm glad I bought it. However- I expected the ends to be tapered like the Beka pick-up sticks, to lower friction on warp threads while weaving. This shuttle is the same thickness across."

Excellent for use with a rigid heddle, tapestry or small frame loom. Can also be used for sampling or carrying a supplementary weft over a short distance.

"Love these Beka shuttles. Well crafted with smooth edges all around."
"I love this one. I like the beveled heads and the warm feel of the wood in my hand. I also like the color. It's a smooth shuttle. I also like the yarn notch for winding it."
"Very nice for weaving narrow pieces like 6” scarves. The tapered ends (as opposed to blunt) help it pass smoothly thru the shed. It would be nice if it had a notch at one end, to hold the tail of the yarn when you start to load it."
"Wonderful shuttle. The tapered ends of the Beka shuttle easily move weft thread without catching on warp. You will want to get all of the sizes."
"My order was easy, and promptly delivered."
"Shuttle is good quality and small so it works well on a narrow warp."
"Fine"
"Again, it was a little rough, but a quick sanding helped."
"Great product. Well made and a good price."
