Here's probably the last of the Abo stuff from me for awhile.  I don't have the time or money..maybe the patience anymore... I cut my hand and finger and it hurts..lol

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!!!

Thank you WillH.  My issue with the short moose billet with the drop swing is it takes huge wide flakes and as u can see on the Decatur it overshoots and a lot of the time wide blades look very clean with hard to see flake scar pattern.  I enjoy it because. I do all my work freehand.  But that's where I get flakes in the palm of my hand. If I can get a smaller moose bopper I think it would solve the problem.

Thanks,

Russ
