Still looks good Jamie!

You mentioned raw rock, It seems to me  that with hammerstones raw rock works better than the heated stuff? You fine that true?

I had been hitting some treated rock,( with frustrating results) and then last night switched to some raw burlington and noticed quite a bit of differences in the flaking qualities with hammerstones. I got along a good bit better.
