He asked me to make something with bone and stone (he knows I'm a copper guy!) So I muddled through a couple breaks before finding my rythim and eventually came up with this little dude.
I gots a long ways to go before I would call myself "proficient" with those crude tools, but it is a sharp little bugger!

I don't need anything in trade for that little thing. Just a fun little challenge. Thank you for your high praise, it was much undeserved.

that's definitely a keeper.
i always find it amazing how these simple dull tools can be used to make such complicatedly sharp pieces.
thanks for sharing.

No worries of me giving up my copper, Lyman. After an hour or so my wrists were sore from my poor ABO technique. I'd be wasting a lot of good rock trying to get to a point I was pleased with, and giving myself arthritis in the mean time.

Looks good to me! I try to pick up some abo stuff sometimes, but don't have much success.
