Title: A little Knap at work.
Post by: Tower on August 03, 2013, 06:16:35 pm

Sat down with my brother today. The plant was turning & the trucks were going out. I took the time to drag out my tools & try to make a point or 2. Both are made from heated local stone. Sorry I didn't take a side profile , but I'm happy with how thin the bigger on turned out. I hope ya'll enjoy.

your points are amazing, I hunted turkeys this spring with the points I got from you and an osage 5-curve from wildkatt with no luck, but it sure wasn't my equipment's fault.        Duck

Nice job as usual Don!!! What are u using for pressure flaker and notching?  I know u told me already but forgot?  I think u said copper and flattened nail?  The bigger one looks nice and glassy!!!
