Ok friends, I have this blank & due to an inclusion near the base I can't corner notch it. What are ya'lls opinion on finnishing it? Scottsbluff, Plainview,Cahokia,Pedernales, or what? I haven't squared the edges yet. Any help out there?

I didn't say you were out of practice, just not posting so many points lately. Pretty sure the ones I mentioned are mid-west points, not fully smart on the subject though. Just enought to make myself look like a dummy.

Yea, I don't know what point you should make, but if I got one that long that thin I'd be beside myself with excitement.

I'm gonna say - Scottsbluff. Although it seems a touch narrow maybe. Love your work!

Well I gave it a valiant effort. Tried for a Scottsbluff, but not very happy w/the outcome. I still have a little rust & dust to knock off myself. Think I'll grab another stone & try another point.
