Here is one I knocked out and finally got hafted last night. It started out to be a point, but in the final stages, I decided to make a knife.

That's pretty neat. You sound like me. I start off trying to make something but sometimes the rock just wants to be something else. Listen to the rock.

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

No, this one is different. I work on the big chunk for a little while, then put it down before I mess up and work on something else.

It isn't as sharp as I wanted, but I am glad because everytime I look for it, one of the kids has it in their room for some reason. It is still sharp enough to skin a deer with. Hopefully, I will get some blood on it soon.
