Something from TN
« on: October 09, 2015, 05:14:45 pm »
I found a lil more time today.  Im not quit sure what this stone is.  I believe Will gave  it to me at the classic.  It was enjoyable to knap, but one of my notches stalled. Think I'll haft it up & use it this season.  I can't wait until the next classic

Looks very nice.  Actually looks a bit like railroad slag.  Don't know if you have ever tried slag but a good dense piece knaps well and has a surprisingly sharp edge

Nice point, Don. If you got it from Will it's probably Kentucky Blue.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?
