Blade and points from this weekend
« on: September 23, 2008, 09:28:33 pm »
Did some fall camping over the weekend, had some beautiful weather. Managed to get some knappin  and nappin done :)
The blade and big point are from slabs, one from glass, the rest I made little points from big rocks ;) The blade came out nice I received the blank from
Wolfwatcher, My daughter claimed it as her own so now I need to haft it, thinking elk antler I also got from Wolfwatcher.

Thanks guys, I'm making some progress :)

Shannon so far I've snapped the tip off everyone I've tried with the glass you sent ??? So I end up with bird points.
I think I'm breaking them by the way I hold the point :-\

Progress might have been all right once but it's gone on for far too long.

Just found this Dana - your really coming along! Those points aught to work just fine on a deer, and the blade should finish em off ;D.
When you come upon a track or trail you do not know, follow it to the point of knowing.
