When you say to yourself, "The blood will stop soon, I'll just finish getting this ridge off then go see about a bandage"
Bowmakers are a little bent, but knappers are just plain flaky.

When its a balmy -20c Canadian morning and ur heaterless knapping session is ended not by cold fingers and toes but by the blood on ur winter coat reavealing a tiny slit in ur finger that is producing a steady drip.  :)

When you find it is the only hing that holds your A.D.D atintion for more than a few minutes..."Hunny I did not realize I was out here knapping for five hours instead of cleaning the garage". ::)

When you know you've had to many beers but you broke all the bottle bottoms and keep drinking cause you need more...... Its kind of an endless cycle... the more you drink more likely to snap it.  the more you snap the more you drink.  When i first started this was the case lol

When you look up from knapping & are eye to eye with the VP of the company & all you can say is " Hey, you play with your I phone. I play with rocks. The belts are turning & you are making money". He smiled & laughed!

...when someone makes fun of your stone tipped arrows and you're actually offended.....so you shoot him with it!  I actually did that to a kid many years ago.  I still have that arrow....and the stone point is still perfectly intact!!  YEAH!!!   >:D   >:D   >:D
