Spotted Dog:


Leg bone pieces up close.

nclonghunter:
I would like to try some heavy bone pressure flakers. I do not think they would hold up to indirect percussion.

Spotted Dog:
I'm not sure either. This bone is very hard and up to 3/8" thick. Time will tell.
Not up to trying more today. Hope to in the morning.

That's a great idea.

You're right about the bone not holing up well.... at least not with cow bone.  Buffalo might work better.  And getting a large enough piece for indirect percussion is difficult.  I tried once with the longest and thickest slice of cow bone I could find.  It lasted about 30 minutes before a piece of the tip when flying off in a unknown direction.  It might work on small points, though.
