Title: percusion question
Post by: bubby on May 10, 2011, 06:24:53 pm

I have been knapping slabs only and was wanting to start doing percusion and was wondering if material this size is doable, some are hand sized but most avg. about 2-3 inches across, thank's Bub(http://i623.photobucket.com/albums/tt320/bubncheryl/blade-4.jpg)I can get buckets full of these from a buddy
