NA says good enough were not making art we are making meat , Let's Go! :D Again just my.02 worth, :o Heck any ole knapper can make points with a thick middle, just look at my points for example. It's hard to make flat thin pretty ones. ;D Bob

I think this is a real good point you make. Does form follow function or function follow form. With arrowheads it is a real good question because "style" meant something to those who were creating points. We have many different forms that accomplish the same task. So you have hit on a really good point that I don't have an easy answer to.

My easy answer is. I'm just going to keep making points as long as I still can. :) Time sadly is not on my side, still in good health so I am just going to keep pounding out the points ;D Bob
