Title: Cahokia Hunting points
Post by: Tower on June 20, 2013, 12:28:43 pm

I found myself having to operate another plant yesterday. So I brought my current issue of PA & read the article on the Cahokia point. Loved the article & felt inspired. I made these yesterday afternoon. The arrow points are knapped from some stone I got from Patrick. The Andice is a local stone. Not my best work , but lots of color.
Sorry fellas, no Abo here.

No apology necessary. Nice punch work on that andice and that black shows some nice flake scars. Looks like time well spent!

The only thing wrong with those points is that they are not stuck in the ribs of a deer!

Thanks for the kind words. The black point is actually a deep maroon. Thanks again for the kind words.
