Title: Couple Lost Lakes and a Benton
Post by: Will H on January 02, 2012, 04:07:58 pm

So I tried a couple more point types...they need alot of work to be authentic but Im gettin there. ::)  This knappin stuff sure is addictive!  >:D Anyway heres my first and second try at a Lost Lake and my first attempt at a double notched Benton. Thanks for looking  :) :) :)

You got it.
 That 2nd lost lake is killer the base is dead on and the notches look grate! Only thing to do different is the tip needs to be more rounded and not so pointy.
 never the less its an outstanding point. When you get a chance post a pic of that Ross i did the last day, not the goofy pic plz :)

Thanks ALOT everyone  :) :) :)  Tower, that black rock is KY Blue. I just waxed it and the pics make it look darker than it is... :)  Tracy, Im not sure what Coshocton is? Is that a type of rock? Not sure what material the benton is made from. It was something layin around in the knappin pit.
[/size]Thanks again yall for all the kind words :D
