Will these knapp?

Hey Rickey, hope you're mending up.  Byron came over today and showed me his knapping tools and an osage bow he'd made.  Looked really nice.  Somebody else is coming over to work on a bow tomorrow afternoon.  Getting busy around here.  When are you coming back over?  I had to move your stave over against the wall so I could work on the S-curve stave.  Anyway, I've been watching knapping video's all afternoon as the rain pours down.  The shop is so loud in a downpour I couldn't work out there.  I'm anxious to start hitting on some rock.  Byron brought over a beautiful piece of obsidian when he came.  Be awhile before I'm ready for that.  Need to find some glass to play on.

Hope to see you soon.

George, is your lease around Abilene? I'm stationed out here at Dyess and have been looking for a place to hunt for some chert but still have to network to meet some landowners. I've been collecting anywhere i can find that's not private property. I've got some coworkers who find stuff for me down south near Ballinger. I'm no expert knapper by any means but am pretty familiar with the basics. Also, been making my own self bow from Osage Orange. I was gonna ask how yours was goin'?

Corey,
The date of the thread is pretty old.
You may get lucky to get a reply.
Hope you do.

Coreytheknoob:
Ya, I didn't look at the date until recently lol. I should have thought of that first but got too excited to see someone local!

Thanks for the response.

Zuma:
I doubt the link will work, so look in the
"Around the Campfire' forum.
There is another guy looking for Osage in TX
Heading for Texas
