A couple more
« on: July 24, 2012, 06:54:24 pm »
I found a little time to knap off & on today. These are what I ended up with. The small one is some local rock heat treated, & the black one is something I picked up at the Johnson City knap-in. I'm not sure what the material is. Its not Dacite. Hope y'all enjoy.

I don't think I've seen a single point you have made that I wouldn't have been proud to put on a stick.

 I disagree w/ you Patrick, your tips are better.
 Master Don, not by a long shot!  Thanks everyone, it feel good to get back to knapping.
