2 knapps left and it broke
keekeerun:
I'm waiting on a phone call to go to work, so I guess I'll have to make another one today. When cutting out the nothches for the sinew wrap what tool is best, the flat or pointed copper flaker.
Hillbilly:
Either/or. the screwdrtiver-shaped tip is good for making narrow notches, but they stall out easily. You can flake the notches a little easier with the pointed tip, but they'll be wider.

Thanks Hillbilly I just started on the one notch and It came out very nice, I need to work on getting my edges smaller so it is sharper.
