"no bulp of percussion" thinning
iowabow:
The bulb is very flat anyways. I have been trying to explain mid stage thinning with percussion since I had that awaking a couple weeks ago and posted thinning pictures. Tower also described flakes he found with little bulb of percussion. So I stated looking at my flakes more closely and worked on perfecting a technique that could be easy explained. I took many pictures of the end of mid stage thinning. The center is thinner than the magins no edge. Also almost no flake scares from thinning as the merge. It very interesting because if you can do this over the stone then it is fog. Without the grind this is me dreaming about a perfect point.
iowabow:
This picture is of the flake
iowabow:
Thes pictures show how nice they blend
iowabow:
These two flakes cut stone in half almost.

This picture shows the heavy bite on a strong platform. This is the mid stage secret.
