Cool Color

This is the 1st time i have been able to make a flintridge cumberland the nature of the meterial makes it very hard to keep it together when fluting.
 Cool colors huh?

Thank you everyone.
 Naw no video's from this guy.
However i am planing on doing some articles for PA on advanced knapping techniques. Not sure when I'll get them together but thats on the agenda for this coming year.
 Jim when i was at flintridge last sept. I spent some time at nethers and ended up coming home with about 80lbs of ridge and from that 80lbs i think 40-50 is good stuff. Not my fav stuff but its easy to knap and has some cool color.

Jesse I agree with the flintridge has awesome colors but can have a lot of inclusions.  I cant wait to see the article when u write it Im sure u will have a lot of good info.  Nice looking rock u got there and tremendous fluting.  ZI think the solberger may be more consistant than the style I am using.

Great work Jesse,

Time, dedication, cuts, tons of broken rock, a wife, and perhaps a few girlfriends are some of what it takes in becoming a skilled flint knapper!!!
