Man those are really nice.  Your flake scars are absolutely perfect.  Mine look like they've been beat on from all angles.   :'(

Those are really nice.  If you get tired of looking at them, just box them up and mail them to me.

Jesse, man - your doing some really beautiful work! Your flaking is really refined, w/thickness ratio looks to be around 5 or 6 to 1, and perfect symmetry - and oh yeah, those notches and bases. Wow!!

its really hard to imagine how well you and some of these other folks can knapp.  i can make points and blades and get them sharp, but you get these things so perfect i couldnt ever imagine getting to that stage.  great great work- Ryan
