First Knapping attempt

(1/2) > >>

Knocker:
After going to the Glass Butte Knapp-in, collecting some rock, and watching the masters, I decided to give it a try today.  They look like arrowheads, but I need to figure out how to get them thinner.  I hope to hook up with some local people for some pointers, and if any of you are willing, I am open to constructive criticism. 
Thanks,
Keith

Those look real nice.  I'm right there with you Knocker.  I've just started and getting my points thinner is my objective too.

Better than I can do thats fer sure :)

Knocker:
Thanks for the encouragement guys.  Hopefully it won't be too long before I can get the bases thin enough to fit in an arrow shaft.  Ore maybe I can drill a hole in the base like a field point!!!   ::)  I am sore today.  I can see my hands need to toughen up, and I need a thicker peice of leather for my leg.
