My latest points and blades..
« on: September 12, 2013, 09:53:56 pm »
Been knapping pretty heavily the last couple of days...The 3 points on the left are novculite AKA"White butter". The other points and blades are made from gray and white porcelain/glass slab tile...Awesome stuff

Good looking points Bill!  Where do you get the porcelain tile?  Its not something you can pick up at the big box store is it?
Really like the side notched second from the left bottom pic.  Sweet.

That's a shame. Anyway I came across a few of those old porcelain reflectors they tar to the asphalt. Purtiest Snow White points I ever made. Interesting to work with.
