Why It Made The List

A handmade wooden slingshot with old-school charm, beautifully finished and built for a bit of analogue fun. There’s something instantly nostalgic about these handsome little objects, a reminder of long summer days, outdoor mischief and a time when entertainment was a little simpler. Each one is cut from a real forked hardwood branch, stained in walnut and wrapped with a twined handle, then fitted with natural latex bands and a leather pouch. No two are quite alike, which gives each one the feel of something considered and individual rather than a mass-produced clone. Back-pocket sized and handcrafted in San Francisco since 2011, it’s a brilliantly unusual gift with tons of character.

N.B. Subject to 18+ age verification on checkout (OneID) and delivery. Not a toy. Before use, read our full Slingshot Safety Information.

MORE DETAIL

The No.4 is a handmade wooden slingshot cut from a real forked hardwood branch, with each natural fork giving the finished piece its own shape and proportions.

The hardwood is finished with a walnut stain and wrapped with twine around the handle, then fitted with natural black latex bands and a leather pouch.

Each No.4 measures approximately 20.3–25.4cm high and 7.6–12.7cm wide, with natural variation between individual pieces.

Its compact size is designed to fit in a back pocket.

All Hella slingshots have been made by hand in San Francisco since 2011.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFO: This is a projectile device and must be used responsibly. Always wear suitable eye protection and only shoot at a safe target with an appropriate backstop, well away from people, animals, vehicles and property. Never fire at people or animals, hard surfaces or water, where projectiles may ricochet unpredictably.

Inspect the wooden frame, latex bands and pouch before every use. Do not use the slingshot if any part shows signs of cracking, wear, deterioration or damage, and replace worn bands before further use. Do not modify the frame or bands to increase power, and never dry-fire the slingshot.

Use only suitable slingshot ammunition, keep the product and ammunition securely stored away from children, and do not use it anywhere it could endanger or alarm members of the public. Possession, transport and use must comply with applicable laws and any local restrictions.
