Point #1
« on: February 26, 2016, 08:44:48 am »
Well, it's nothing fancy but that would be my first all ABO point.  From a piece of treated Flint River I picked up at the knapp-in.  I got a nice big flake with my billet and then knocked off the thick stuff with a small hammer stone and used my antler tines.  I might try to notch it a little tonight.

I like how ABO forces me to slow down.  Bet my copper stuff will improve as a result.

What do you guys think?

That is a sure enough hunting point.  Good job!  Joe

I really like that treated Flint River rock....point looks good to me. Part of the fun in ABO to me is designing new tools to use. Some work and most dont..:-)

Your knapping will defiantly improve if you can get those results with ABO.  Great job
