Some "hafters"
« on: January 23, 2010, 08:20:40 pm »
 Here's a set I made today for Jeff Utley.   Some of his Tallahatta, some of my Sonora, Cowboys G-town and Jesses Flint river.   They all weigh around 150 grains give or take a little.

I'd move. I swear I would. I don't mind snow and cold weather, but MONTHS and MONTHS of it is for the eskimos.  You ever wonder why ya don't find many artifacts up there???? It's because even the cavemen where smart enough to get the heck out of there!  No offense to Jamie ;D

Shannon
That is impressive.  Not only is the knapping beautiful, but to get them all weight matched as well.  That is some fine work.

Fine lookin' ammo, Shannon. That's the same kind of hunting points I usually make. NC law is no barbs, so I make shallow side-notches and fill them with the hafting sinew.

Same law here in Ky too, Steve. I make 'em that style because I can't think of an easier, more effective design.  Eddie don't even notch points, but I like to notch them just deep enough to recess the sinew.  Any deeper just weakens the point I think.
