Some of my work
« on: June 15, 2014, 03:28:09 pm »
This Snyders point is made from novaculite with ABO tools. The next point is a Toyah, I had to use a steels notcher on this one. The Hopewell is from a really nice piece of hornstone. Also ABO.

Outstanding points.

Those are some Jim dandys! Looks like you've been hitting rocks for awhile.

All of your points look great but the Snyders and the Hopewell are dead on. I just keep going back and looking at the Snyders, Really sweet. Bob

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!!!

The snyders are what I was trying that day everything broke :(. Haven't hit a rock since.

Thank you for all of the kind comments! Snyders and Hopewells are my favorite types and I strive hard to make accurate replicas. I am 17 and having knapping for four years with primarily ABO tools. I am excited to join these forums and love seeing other peoples work. Cowboy, don't give up on making a Snyders!
