Title: New hunting point
Post by: Allyn T on October 25, 2022, 02:00:42 pm

Knocked this one out between yesterday and today. Raw harvester chert. 130 grains, 1.25 wide by 2.25 long. Sharpest point I've made, gonna try to replicate it on my other points. The difference is noticeable.

Definitely improving Allyn.

That’s probably why you went through your breaking them streak

I tend to do that to.

I get fussier and I can’t call it finished till I’m happy or it’s broken.lol

Thats some interesting looking stone. Nice work. Looks like you got that one pretty thin. Reducing the thickness gets me more often than Ill admit to :)
