Title: Another Bird Point
Post by: bushman on April 18, 2010, 02:58:14 am

I was tryin to make another bird point tonight but when I was tryin to make the notches in it I snapped it. So I went and squared off the end and just made little notches in it this time. It is the one in the middle there, the other 2 I already posted ones before. The 2 black ones are flint. What do you guys think, is it small enough?

That's more like a Blowgun point.
