Good lines, fine edge work, clean face and good symmetry!
Very well done!

I reckon it would be one of these.
 No slabs and no FOG, but I do use copper.

saw filer those are perfect as usual. i have always admired your work on paleo.
your flake scars (wow) those could be mistaken for fog for sure. i wish i could get en to travel that well

my hammerstone work is functional but ugly.if i am knappin abo  i only really use hammerstones if the flake wont come off with antler.

Don't know how you do it, Shannon! There isn't a hair out of place on those things.
I didn't think I'd see one better than the Horse Creek one, but that second one..........!!!

Well 2010 was my first full year of knapping.  I starting bashing on some dacite in November of 09.  I made a few really crude points. then off to glass butte I went.  There I picked up a few tricks and a bunch of rock.  These points I made for elk hunting in September.  And the knife I made for my buddys dad.  I do have more recent knives and points bt no pictures yet.
