Post by: Outbackbob48 on May 13, 2013, 08:26:36 pm
We have been having some real crappy weather(rain an ya snow) this week so I been doing alot of knapping. Here is a Lost Lake type of point I finished today, Made out of some Kentucky rock I got from Brian at the classic, It works pretty good an will keep ya on your game. Heck of alot better than the rock I have here. thanks for lookin.
 Bob ( ps. Roger it was 31 deg. when I got up this morning, gotta love the North.)

Bob... really nice point.

Flungonin.... I believe the one most people use is "The Official Overstreet Indian Arrowhead Identification and Price Guide". I ordered mine from Amazon.

Bob,

I hate to break it to you in a public forum, but You're addicted Buddy.  I just read your post in "arrows" and it all came to me, You need help.  Knappers Annonymous, where there may be a sliver of hope left for you, either make it or break it.  ;Ddpgratz

The Overstreet Indian Arrowheads,  It is a price guide and point Id book. Mine is older 5 edition but newer updated have same info plus. I got mine at a big knapin but others have said Amazon has them. Great for trying to copy points from differnt areas of the country. Later Bob
