My latest points

Not much time fer chippin lately. But I did sit down and make these two the other evening.
  The corner notched one is from half of a big blade I broke.  And the blue one is some translucent sonora flint.  It had some healed up cracks that I thought looked neat.

Dang nice Shannon! Your skills are top shelf! I guess if anybody can tig a tooth back onto a sawblade then they must know how to pay attention to detail ;).
