Rhyolite Axe and point
« on: February 07, 2016, 12:28:30 am »
NC Rhyolite Beast Rock! This rock is hard to work, between fractures/cracks and layers it is a challenge. Did manage to get a couple beat out tonight. An axe head and a Hardaway point.

Nice job with that 'beast' stuff! The Hardaway is especially fine.

Thanks guys, I actually enjoy the challenge but it is hard on your tools. I'll not forget Stringman saying at the Classic "why would you want to do that to your tools".....good point then and now...lol
