Moose Billets
« on: July 31, 2010, 06:19:22 pm »
I don't know if anyone is interested in these but I would like to trade them for some stone.  What I want is some larger spalls 6~8" long suitable for making knife blades and would like a mix of stone.  Also I'm not a great knapper so I don't really want anything that is hard to knap.

They were given to me by an older guy that used to knap a bit and I don't really have any use for them, I prefer copper for the little bit of knapping I do.  One is pretty large, about 2 or 2 1/2" in diameter at the base and the others are made from the tines.  Don't ask me why some are red.

PM me or post a message here if interested

Yep I was thinking the same thing.
If we can't help each other what is the point of being here?
