That some sweet looking rock.Nice deep notches , Too bad about the breaks. At least it not a bad break, they'll make good shouldered points.

Thanks everybody! I wasn't too proud of the knapping but the rocks are fancy. Wanted to show what i'd come up with so far. Hey bub, i think you did have that one marked polish. A couple of the jaspers were so slick that they broke about dead center and are now in the pernt graveyard somewhere ::). Yes bowartist the red is mook from Australia, looks a lot like horse creek from TN..
