New to the forum. Been knapping about a year and decided to post some of my points for some criticism.

Welcome to PA. My only criticism is why did it take you so long to show your work.lol. Nice points, are they from spalls or slabs?

The dovetail is a slab. The other two are from spalls. Its hard to get spalls for less than an arm and a leg. Pretty expe sive. Slabs arent near as fun to work with.

I was wondering the same thing Zuma. I'm thinking thinking the top one is dacite and the rest are Obsidian. Very nice work Paleokid93.
