Knockin the rust off
« on: October 24, 2011, 08:17:11 pm »
I thought I'd better knock off some of the rust an see if I could still produce some kinda point. ;D This is a piece of west texas from Kinley, I struggled with a few spots because of being out of practice, I really like this rock, so anyways here's what I came up with. Comments welcome an thanks for lookin. Bob

Kinley does have good stone & you did it justice! Very nice point.

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!!!
