Title: Rum bottle Knapping
Post by: Outbackbob48 on October 23, 2009, 08:06:45 pm

Here's one I got out of a Bicardi Rum bottle bottom. I took a 20d nail a gave it a couple shakes an had the  bottom off in one pc. Did a little percussion and then pressure flaked. Nothing fancy but good practice. Thanks for looking. Later Bob

Very nice and yes its prctice but even the glass makes some lethal points..I find sometimes glass is harder to flake than stone..U have some good pressure flaking on that point and picture look very nice...goodjob!!!
