couple new points from some tough stone
« on: May 10, 2012, 11:45:14 pm »
Both stones are burlington with a lot of grain.  The second point I am real happy with because the large ishi stick flakes are edge to edge.   I even matched the flakes below the notches so that was cool.

It is real hard to tell on the second (because of the light)  one cowboy but I was able to edge to edge the whole preform before the small serrations on the side. This is the first time for me to get it without mistakes. I have been waiting for this day so now I think I am going to start dipping into the candy high quallity stuff starting this week.

Great serrations. Love the length of both , now they need a little piggy blood on em. Nice work, I'm always a fan.
