New Braunfels chert.
« on: September 14, 2012, 11:04:23 am »
This Andice is a little off on the notches. I've been working on smaller points, so I'm kinda rusty on the larger ones. Its made from a Tab I picked up in a local canyon. This stone was very inconsistent in how it knappped. Hope y'all enjoy.  Tower

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

Yeah, they just don't make rock like they used to.

That's a really interesting style point.  Must be kinda hair raising to do those super-deep notches while still keeping the tabs on both sides.  Gorgeous!
