Knotty:
Hey fellow Archers and Knappers ,

This was harder than I imagined,
I started off with a project in mind, and the point broke 3 times 😐

Soo it became ALOT smaller than I imagined, but keep in mind I don't own any knapping tools ( 😢  )
So it's alot more difficult to do with what I got here: Screwdrivers, forks, and whatever comes to hand.

I'd appreciate any feedback 😄

Parnell:
Congratulations on your point!

Knotty:
Thanks @Parnell , I probably won't be using this one because it's too small, but it's a good learning medium so that I don't mess up the good stuff 😊

Make yourself some told pressure flaker, bopper etc easy to do and will help with making points. Keep chipping and the will get larger and sharper.

  YOU CAN GET ANTLER TIPS ANYWHERE.

Also you can grind mosty any bone to a point. I like deer leg bones. cut a end off good leath. They sharpen down to a super hard point. Much harder than antler,so it lasts longer+.

  Go to any electic store,lowes where ever and buy some copper ground wire, or nails get a couple sizes if you can. Cut a broom hand 8,10 inchs. Drill a hole same size as your wire. Put it in I don't glue mine. the copper where's out really quick. So you'll have to replace it. 

SHAPEN TO A POINT. LEAVE A INCH OF COPPER WIRE OR NAIL STICK OUT. MAKE YOU    A COUPLE LEATHS.

  HAVE FUNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
