Holy Crap, Jesse. Stick me a couple of big ones aside if you want to do a little trading.

Those big one really need to be sawn. It's not every day you findthat kind of rock in sizes like that. Really rare stuff. I'm so jealous it hurts  |

I am not going to touch those big eggs they will be traded to sold at knap-ins it would be silly not to have them cut.
I have allot of 3 to 7 inch chunks for trade right now.
Sure Eddie i got a big one with your name on it. we can work something out at the classic.

Don't forget to gather up that milk crate for me before you leave for Georgia.

hope you realize what you have got there Jess? When I first started knapping I run across a house site that was full of high grade Jeff city nods. I got 15 buckets and ruined about all of it before I knew what was what. I have never found rock that good since.
cherish those rocks buddy and grats on a great haul!
P.S. I just sold a big billet a while back.....Wished I still had it now!
