That is a big old point. It ought to bleed them if you can get it into them.

 That shore is a perty rock ;D
When I grow up, I'd like to learn how to use them cave man tools.
 I worked a piece of glass the other day. First piece I've ever used percussion on.  Had to back waaaay off with the copper.  I can't help but thin that antler is the way to go with glass and obsidian ???

I have a hard time using copper. I get used to it after awhile but I usually just crush edges. And yes antler is the way to go with obsidian and glass. Works great on the thunderchert too.

Nice,  I think Kegan and his 90# bows are the only combo that will be able to shoot that.  Nice work Jamie.

Yeah, you should haft that onto an arrow so that Steve will have some ammo for his massive bow he is going to build.  Nice point Jamie, I love that red obsidian.   :) -josh
