I'd say you have been knapping!  As slow as I am, it would take me a year to turn out that many points and blades. They look nice.
Be thankfull for all you have, because no matter how bad you think it is...it can always be worse.

Long time no-see jamie. Wow, look at all the points - looks like you robbed a museum ;D.

Wow, Jamie, I thought I had been busy.  Not as busy as you.  Beautiful stuff.

things havent been so good right now so i feel like banging some rocks and taking my anger out.  But then after looking at my pile of rubble i might even be more discouraged ;D

Jamie- Nice points.  I'm glad you did something nice with that mahog obsidian.  I would have only managed to make a pile of rubble out of it. ;D
