Title: Lost Lake Flintriver
Post by: Outbackbob48 on July 04, 2013, 08:34:19 pm
Acquired this pc of Flintriver from Eric's Rocks, took a spall off from it an came up with this Lostlake Point. I hav'nt worked to much of this material but so far I like what I'm getting. Makes a good sharp point and has enough color in it so it isn't to plain. I like it :D :D  Hope you like it also.  ??? Bob

That's a nice one Bob. I have to agree, that is almost my favorite rock to use. If you heat treat it, it will get a red, roasted pepper color.

Eddie , I believe it's been heat treated to 425. I know I didn't pay $4.25 or $425 :o for the rock so I am thinking that it was a temp marking on this pc of rock. It has alot of cortex on it an some roasted pepper colors in it also. Bob

Outback thanks for posting this!  I have a piece of rock that looks like a small slab of uncooked homemade bacon and now I know what it is!  I would never kill a thing with your point because I would never take a shot for fear of losing it!   :)

Nice one Bob! That's good rock. If it's heated, even some of the concrete will knap well and the lighter colored (normally tough) will be slick.
