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!!!

I think that your knapping is awesome and that i need to learn and practice more.
In working in stone i find my past, in giving of the blood i pay for the future.

When you come upon a track or trail you do not know, follow it to the point of knowing.
