Cool color point
« on: August 29, 2014, 12:04:42 pm »
This is a piece of flint that I picked up at our ranch in hill country of Texas.  It's not the best quality flint but has cool color.  Hope the pics arnt squished sending from iPad.

That one sweet point.   Heck if you have a spall or two not doing anything I wouldn't be opposed to working them a lil.  ;)

Thanks everybody for your responces.  Tower of course you can.  we will get some when you come to my land to hunt. I think that it would work better if you used your kiln to heat Treat.  Sorry bout the pics.
