Rainy nights good for knapping

bjrogg:
Had a good week farming working long days to get the sugarbeets planted before the rain. I always sleep good when it rains at night. Especially when I relax and knap first.

paulc:
looks great.  P

mullet:
Looks good, Brian. That rock looks pretty shiny and black for Dacite. most of what I have is dull and gray.

bjrogg:
Thanks Paul
Thanks Eddie. I'm pretty sure it Dacite. It flakes nice, almost like cheating. Feels a little light. I guess if it's not dacite I was misinformed. All the dacite I ever worked was black as coal and shinny.

mullet:
I'll post a picture of a big piece I have tomorrow. I've never seen shiny Dacite, it is usually dull and harder than Obsidian.
