Title: Numero Dos
Post by: DLH on September 28, 2011, 02:20:59 am

Put away my knapping and bow attemping in the summer after it made me angry so im back trying and refreshed. Here is a point that i made today from so Sonora I got from Shannon I haven't knapped much but its prolly one of my favorites so far. I don't really know what style the point is at this point im just trying to make something that resembles a point. Couldn't get all the cortex off but thats not much compared to what was on there at the start the look is kinda growing on me. Any suggestions? Open to critique. Thanks.

That point looks just fine and i'm sure will do what it's intended for if your gonna hunt with it. No critique you just need to get more rocks and stay after it :).
