Nice ones. Wade, I think that material was Esopus chert/silicified shale.

dang, Jamie, gonna have to call you tater chip! Nice.

I looked through my artifacts tonight and this is the only one I found that I think is a kirk. Very well made.Wish the the rest of it was there. Not sure what kind of rock it is, but I call it sugar quartz.

Sailor, not bad for a novice. Keep working at it.Takes a while to learn. And even after you think you have it down,you'll have blunders. I broke everything I tried yesterday.

I was hoping to get some knapping done over the weekend and get a Kirk posted, but it rained like a bovine urinating on a level geological formation all weekend. Good time to hit the shop and work on some bows, though.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?
