I've got some horse creek cooking right now. Bob, tell Mark to hurry up and send my six inch solid bopper ;). I ordered it to replace the one that I donated to the Scouts. ::)

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!!!

There ya go Shannon - nice as usual. Guess it beats popping the heads off of turtles with a pistol at a hundred yards huh ;D. Ya know. Just looked at my schedule and I'm headed to TN next. My weld supply is in Clarksville, hmm - doubt they'll see me on the jobsite very often ::).

Paul, they were'nt a hundred yards out...just about 25 or 30. It was awful fun  >:D
 I pick up a little of this rock at knap-ins when it's available. Real hard to get any with more than one color in it and then even harder to keep it in the point.  Bob's right, it's a bear to work cause it's usually full of layers and cracks. Way too expensive to practice on. I wish I had some of the pieces I destroyed back when I started :'(
 Glad ya'll like 'em

Great looking points. Would really like to get that good and maybe someday?  I try and make a point or two to deer hunt with here in Michigan and those would certainly do the trick.. Thanls for posting.

You knappers that are really good and post photos are a real inspiration for new knappers like me.  Thanks

Excellent as usual. Is that tough material to work?

It can range from near impossible to like obsidian all within one piece.  On average it's "challenging"  8) Most knappers either love it or hate it.
