Those look really nice . The darker one (horn stone)! is really sharp in more ways than one. How do you get them so thin? I know practice, but it hasn't happen with my piddly pileage pile. Anyway love looking at your work.

Thanks 9er!
No part pics Tracy. ;)
Flungonin, Thanks for the kind words. Most of my hornston points all come from the same big chunk of rock I found a couple years ago. I spall off a piece and go to town on it. Most start fairly thin. I take the inside radius off the ends and wha-la, a thin flat flake to shape and sharpen.
Thanks again for comments, dp
