Hunting point.
« on: February 21, 2012, 05:08:31 pm »
I felt a little itch in my hands today. So I decided to work it out with a little pressure flaking. I found this flake under the drivers seat of my truck. That's kinda scary place to clean for me. Never know what I will find under there! After looking the piece over for a bit I thought I'd give it a try & this is how it came out. I've never made a perfect & this one has its flaws. Hope y'all like it.

Only flaw I see is that it is in your hand, not mine. ::)

Very nice looking meat maker.
Bowmakers are a little bent, but knappers are just plain flaky.

Are you sure you're not ready to jump off a bridge after making a point like that? ??? ;)

I can't quite make out the flaws you're talking about on this computer.  I'm going to need to take a closer look at it, do you have my address?

You should probably try to go a couple of mm's thinner so it'll be transparent, haha.. Looks great as usual Tower!
