 Very nice 1442, I'm amazed how efficient you are with your stone. Afraid I need bigger pieces than that to start out with to come up with points like that. My biface would have to be that big

Just out of curiosity, are they in your hand the same order as the points you got from them?

Well you sure do a heck of a job with that old gravel.

Thanks Y'all.
Bjorg, they are in the same order then the close ups are posted left to right.
Here's a couple shots of each one midway.
the first one was good rock through and through, I worked from the ends first to spare the width

Thanks for the extra pictures 1442. At first glance I would have thought the third one looked the slickest. I probably wouldn't even have picked up the first one. Very interesting

 Can you do a bipolar split of that gravel and get two from one?
