 When leapingbare was here last weekend he started this point and put it down and told me to finish it. Jesse also said to flute it, too. So I did and here it is. It's a jasper from Utah.

Nice looking point Eddie. I got a piece the size of a four wheeler, I would like to see what can you make out of that?  ;D

Time, dedication, cuts, tons of broken rock, a wife, and perhaps a few girlfriends are some of what it takes in becoming a skilled flint knapper!!!

 Thanks, I know Jesse said he liked beating on it.  Justin, load it up and come on down. I'm still checking into that Water Buffalo hunt. I think for that much money it will be a big gun.
