the brownish point is a type of chert, i think coastal plains or texas, the white i think is noculite. I got the stone from a friend who knapps and sells rock. The white stone was extremely hard like trying to flake granite, but it is also extremely
 sharp. brown glass from old clorox bottle and clear glass from old pickle jar.

The brownish one is flint river chert, it was raw and uncooked but still flaked very nicely. I still have 4 more pieces left gonna knock out some more at deer camp saturday during the middle of the day.
