I got my things fro Flintknappingtools.com and i got what is called mahgony obsidian from http://www.orerockon.com/ore_rock.htm. You can but cut or rough form and they have great prices. take a look at both sites. the other site i would reccommend is http://www.eskimo.com/~knapper/ this is an excellent site to get information or get other site to buy different material to knapp. drop me a line if you need more information.
In working in stone i find my past, in giving of the blood i pay for the future.
