That looks good Jesse. Is that cortex on there or inclusion? I always liked points with a little bark left on em.

guy handed me a five gallon bucket of choice normanskill at my club this weekend. sometimes things go your way. i decided to knock out another dalton with it. i got lazy at the end and should of sharpened the antler but didnt and started creating a bunch of little hinges. i love this rock.

  Holy Crap!, Jamie, that one is thin. You are going to like James Parker and Steve, the other concrete chippers. ;)

Another nice one Jamie - man that things thin and symetrical. I can see them steps in the side view but their really shallow, that don't hurt a thing.

Man, that's a pretty point Jamie.  It would work on the end of a stick!

Here's my attempt. I found one in my book that looked about like this so thought I'd give that a shot. This is a peice of Georgetown that I picked up in - well Georgetown :). Found an old rancher that had nothing better to do than sit on the porch and drink ice tea - we hit it off instantly and I secured permission to load up all the rock I wanted. Life is a journey - ain't it 8).
