Thanks gentlemen. I think I’m getting better but knapping has a pretty good way of humbling me. Out in my shop today and was looking through my stash and found a nice piece of black obsidian I bought a while back. Probably about 6 inches long and I thought that I could make a nice knife blade out of that. And I started taking nice gentle little flakes off and about 6-8 nice little taps in, yup broke right in to. I put the 2 piece in my come back later bucket.
