Title: New Points
Post by: david w. on November 15, 2008, 10:08:12 pm

Here is a point i made out of a blue-green jasper preform from Wolf Watcher.  Its a beautiful rock :)

Wolf Watcher sent me a nice package of goodies with 10 preforms, an amazing point hafted onto a foreshaft,an ishi stick,  pressure flaker, antler billets, antler knife handles, copper, and a hand pad. Thanks!  I cant thank you enough :)

I love that Ishi stick! I can shoot flakes all the way across the preform. Its awesome!

I will have some more up tomorrow

Thanks everyone

I just got back inside from knapping.  I had a beautiful point going but i snapped the tip off. I am going to superglue it back together.  I wont be able to hunt with it but for looks and target shooting it should be ok
