 Here's a point I banged out yesterday afternoon. It's some of the rock I heat treated this past weekend.

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

Beautiful stone the heat treatment really brought out the colors!

Great point!

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!!!

Wow thats purdy
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intentions of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body. But rather to slide in sideways, thoroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming....WOW WHAT A RIDE!!

 Cowboy, yea thats one I cooked with the Charcoal. I blew up a couple of pieces of Perd's and one piece of coral. Other than that it all came out pretty good. Thanks. TJ, Tracey and Roger. Got a pretty little translucent white one almost done.
