Simply Knapping
« on: June 06, 2015, 07:44:05 pm »
Not going to get a caught up in the controversy's, At my age I need to just put my head down and knapp and savor every flake. Had a nice little session and got this flintridge dovetail tonight. Small pc of flint ridge had a $1 mark on it and it just wanted to be a $20 point. The others were from a couple weeks ago.  Thanks for lookin. Bob

Real Nice. I have been working my way through a bunch of OBS, but looking at those points makes me want to go back and work some chert/flint. :o

Way to go Bob. It's nice to see an honest man just making honest points :). I care not at all for drama myself.

I just woke up from a simple nap.... closest I can get. Every time I try to add the letter K to the word nap I just wind up breaking stuff....
