hard stuff
Ed Brooks:
I got it bad and know it. every place I go, I'm looking for material, bow wood, arrow wood, rocks you name it. my son came home with a rock the other day, and asked if it would work for me to make points out of. I told him it looked pretty hard, however i managed to get a point. I was going to put it in ABO but I ended up using a nail for final edge work. I think its a quarts material of some kind but not sure. Thanks for looking. Ed
Zuma:
Nice point from pretty rough lookin rock.
Not sure at all but it could be a common dolomite

Nice point for that material. The rock looks like Gneiss to me.
Ed Brooks:
thanks for taking the time to look, I'm not sure what this rock is leverite maybe, tough for sure. :-K
I'm really liking that my son is looking for material for me, now if I could get him to hit two rock together.. hope you all have a great day. Ed
