Ridge Dalton
« on: June 12, 2014, 10:20:40 pm »
This pc of flint ridge had a little of everything, color, crystals and some fossils right in the tip, also was a little undercooked so was grainy and dry. I was hopping to give it a little more thinning but this is what I got. I did get some basal  thinning by trying small weak flutes on each side. The pics are also a little on the weak side :-\ :o Bob

You were right Bob, that point has got it all going on.
Nice one!

That is one tough looking rock there Bob. Cool colors though. Looks like you had to earn that one.
When you come upon a track or trail you do not know, follow it to the point of knowing.

Nice Job BOB and cool stone!

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!!!
