Iowa,
     I dont knapp, and about too old to learn......but damned if those aren't very fine points. Dont know if you can hunt with them, but we can here in Michigan and I can tell ya they are way nice.

Thanks for all of the encouragement! two new concepts I have been working on are flake patterns and sharpening the edge as i finish the point. I had a nice pattern on the larger blade but pushed off the ridges. I think if i clean the stone just before the final pattern I can keep the scares viisable.
