Hopewell Point wins! It surely is a odd color variation of PA Jasper that has recently been made available for our viewing and knapping pleasure. For those not common with the material below is what PA Jasper tends to look like or a variant of a yellowish orangey brown color.

Yeah, I never would have guessed that, the color you showed in the last pic is the only shade I have ever seen. Where could a lucky knapper get some?!

By the way, great knapping, I always liked the broad point styles.

Great knapping.
 
Like I wrote earlier, a friend sent me a few pieces of rock that you would swear it was Flintridge.  The source spot I found  has produced some very colorful material including some light yellow and purple rock.

Cant take any credit for the knapping of those 2 just the pictures of them. I cant find the nerve to make anything out of the PA Jasper I do have for fear that I will ruin it. I did make this one though out of some texas rock. Turbo there is a somewhat limited quantity of this stuff available.... any ideas Caveman on how to get some?

Do keep me posted, did you knap those 'caveman'? Are you the one who knapped the banner points on PP?! I've always been a fan of the broad point styles, nicely done whoever did. Nice texas one 'ghost', nothing wrong w/ that!

Good guess but you should have listened to the
noise the streak was making.
Here is what I started with.
The streak is important.

Beautifully done 'caveman' and 'ghost'. As for the new material, I gravitate toward Hornstone myself.
