Nice Weather
« on: January 06, 2018, 06:03:41 pm »
It's finally warmed up a tad so I got in the pit for awhile. One out of an olive oil bottle, three out of some tough Texas stuff and an ugly knife, but real sharp from some Novaculite. I still need to wrap it with sinew.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?

Nice, what's the knife glued with? Pine Pitch? I like those three points!

Thanks everybody.
Brian, yea, it's pitch glue.
The rock was cooked at 500dgs all night. The brown shiney part was butter and the concrete was a pain.

Nice to see you guys are getting some nice weather for knapping. It been real cold and windy here. Below zero and nasty wind. Not ready to sit around the pit. Supposed to get warmer for a couple days but all my knapping will be indoors for awhile yet.
