Good looking points, Bob. I like that Ridge, what's the center one made from?

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

Eddie, Got a Texas tab from Eric's Rocks, about 1/2" thick so removed cortex from A side and thinned on the B side. It is not as hingy as seems in pictures, about 5" long. Bob

Not familiar with the A and B side meanings...        A- awesome.      B-beautiful

Makes sense with those points...well done

A- side= the good lookin side
B-side= Not so good lookin

My points seem to end up with 2 "C" sides
C-side= Crappy lookin

I know how you feel bob!! the last point I made has an identical hinge as your point in the middle! its in the same place and looks just like it!
LOL! but they look great.i like a perfect point.it has its spot,but a point that's a little,lets say,not perfect,looks better to me for some reason.maby because it looks more authentic? I think unga bunga and his posy used perfect points for ceremony or maby even traded them for stuff and used the others for getting down to business!
