Title: Corner Tang
Post by: knapperhead on December 16, 2013, 05:07:57 pm

I had the pleasure of sitting with Tower last week and watching him knapp. I must say the man is a master. I handed him a tabular chuck of of some pretty tough rootbeer and he found this beauty in there. Sorry they are upside down.

I like the root beer and corner tangs.  What could be better than a root beer corner tang?  That root beer looks so shiny and uniform you would think it would knap like obsidian.  Definitely not the case.
