The Catatonk was designed in response to the demand for a quality flexible atlatl at a reasonable price. This version is from our carbonized line where we char the Ash wood the atlatl is made from. This technique was used by cultures throughout the world to preserve wood. In the Japanese culture, it is known as shou-sugi-ban

Equal in many ways to the pricier Catatonk Hunter, this atlatl has been designed to be produced with less labor, while keeping up the high standards for form and fit of the more costly atlatls in our line. Robert Berg of Thunderbird Atlatl came up with this copyrighted design. It is not based on any traditional atlatls.
