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!!!

Me and my buddy snakeman saw that the other day when I was searching for flint.   There's a "make an offer" button I was gonna mess with him a little.   O:)  That's just a crazy price either way.

I don't know what he was smoking. Maybe his finger got stuck pressing his 0 key. I am going to have to watch this just for the heck of it.

Here is another one with a lot more zero's in the asking price.

Did you notice he also wants $100 to ship those two knives? They must be a lot bigger than they look in the picture.

I always thought of Knapping as a hobbie. I could sell my points & retire , maybe build more points. Have enough time & money to make all the knap-ins! Meet all my P.A. Friends!

   The first dude and the pretty Washington points  are insinuating that they might be ancient, A bunch of Shysters. >:( I'd love to know who made those points in that case from Washington, Emory Coons?

 The pawn shop dealer is dreaming about those glass points, makes me want to dig through my debitage pile. ::)

Mullet, I am with you. I looked at the "Museum" ad and I am not so sure those are not modern points either. Some of them may be the real deal, but to have that many "absolutly perfect" points.... ?????

As for selling on eBay... It will not surprise me if the glass ones sell. You can sell almost anything on eBay. I saw a guy sell a stick he picked up in the woods. He advertised it as a possible magical wand. He was up front about it saying he fond it under a tree on a walk. Said it didn't have any magical properties for himself, but in the right hands, it "might" have magical properties. Damned it someone didn't buy it. Think about it, I bet you could sell a bag of bunny poop. You just have to advertise it right. Something like "Secret ingrediant the Native Americans used to make pine pitch for mounting arrowheads". I bet you could get $10 bucks easy!!!!
