Esopus Bifurcate
« on: January 14, 2013, 07:51:51 pm »
Howdy folks, here's a little point I got out of a small cobble of esopus...I love making mccorkle styled bifurcates...also looks real nice on an arrow or dart shaft!

Thanks for looking...

Sweet point looks like it could draw blood.

That's a very nice point! Love the way it looks on a shaft.

Thanx, I found out the head of the IT dept is an avid collector of arrowheads he goes all over the world looking for points bones and coins...right here in good old NY he found a skull and lower jaw of a native american dated over 10,000 years old in his garden as well as finding points and big flakes of pa jasper...among those I determined onondaga and normanskill...what was really interesting it looks like a piece of dover from TN.  I will try to get a picture of the jaw and the huge susquhanna broad point made of jasper...amazing! He just informed me he might need open heart surgery so I think I am going to use this esopus point to make him an arrow for a gift!....

Thanks,

Russ
