I got busy and made this point.  I was nervous doing it.  Seems like I'm prone to busting off the tips or the barbs.   I wish I could take pictures like you all can that show off the flake scars.  I think this style is called a Gunther or Gunter or something like that.

Nice work,,, To take good pics of the flake scars you need good lighting and macro on the camera for close up shots,,, Try using a lamp with a 60 watt bulb for your lighting source if your taking inside.........You can also take an arrow shaft and stick it i the ground and lay your point on top of the shaft and get some awesome photos, looks like the point is floating in air.

Good Chippin
