Funny thing happened I asked wife if I could use turkey roaster to cook some more rock promised I'd have it back by weeks end. To my surprise she said yes but take the other one it needs cleaning anyways lol. In the mean time I knocked one out of dacite knapps nice but just seems hard to get a good sharp edge. Also 2 from local stuff still works pretty hard broke the one trying to get crystals off base. Got my flake but when I unwrapped paper towel I had it in saw it was broke
was hoping to make hunting arrow from that one

Well I finished cooking let the rocks cool cleaned up and returned wife's turkey roaster. It was so clean I didn't even get scolded. I knapped a few points works much nicer now. Took a few pictures

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

Thanks Eddie I guess I locked myself out had to figure out how to unlock it. This stone works much better now, and it's good to know I can use wife's roaster with out fear of reprocusion.
