Nice looking knife. Would did you put on the antler crown?  I have a couple of Ridge slabs with mostly blue color but a little hesitant to tackle it .

a swirled jewlery piece that I bought

I saw Miller on youtube heat treat his flint ridge - it has a real awesome sound.  This material I have I am guessing is more waxy because if I do decide to percussion a piece it doesnt have that glassy sound like his video does.  This one was a slab, and it flaked really friendly  I might buy some from Miller someday just to hear that sound ;)

edit = I have seen some awesome flint ridge recently colors are great

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!!!

That is beautifull. Is it from a slab?

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?
