Last spring I was given a ziplock bag full of Flintridge flakes. That stone works great. I need to get more of it. These are what I managed to get with them. Tower

I accually got to turn some of that in to gravel and gave all the points i made from it away at christmas last year. If i could make points out of it it has to be some good stuff.. Great looking points as always...
