Need 3 matched Obsidian/ stone points
« on: August 05, 2012, 05:29:48 pm »
I am making some arrows for a guy and He wants 3 to be tipped with stone points.  My skills arent up to par yet, so thought maybe one of you talented knappers could help me out.  Looking for 3 matched points ! 125- 150 grns, that are legal for hunting with in Oregon (no "barbs", that is the rear points can't be swept back).  For trade, I have very nice fir arrow shafts in several spine groups, I also have some elk leg bones, and yew staves.

Bill, I personally have nothing against glass bottle points, but the guy I am making the arrows for wants obsidian first, or flint if obsidian points were hard to find.  Scott Stanberry (stringman) is making me some obsidian points right now.
