Got a little chance to do some knapping today, Picked up a pc of candy rock ;D an found this nice med size point. Not sure what to call this type point besides corner notched :o. Lost Lake, Hardin, Rainkin, Hybrid Cross? Really starting to like some of this Flint Ridge rock 8), Later Bob

Call it Sweet Rock,
I have been wanting to get some of that flint ridge. Was suppose to make a trip Monday but it was canceled... :'(

Nc, I just made another point out of a pc I mined at Nethers Farm and it had everything going on, great colors, crystals, fossil holes, I could not get it as thin as I like but came out pretty good for all the problems in it, I could of used a little more heat on it, One tuff grainy son of a gun. Still thinking of reheat now that I have it thinned down, Like Bonepile says " It's a love hate relationship with Ridge Material" Love the colors , hate inclusion and dry grainy spots. Hope ya can get some and see for yourself. Bob

Call it whatever ya like Bob, that's a nice looking point! That's one quarry I doubt I'll ever make it to :(. About as likely as me finding some hixton in tx ::).

Nice flaking Bob! I like Flintridge too its amazing stuff and theres so many different colors and patterns. I too have knapped some riddled with holes fossils and crystal pockets. If u can keep it together it makes a great point with character! Im hoping to hit the knapp in at flint ridge this year right after Letchworth!
