Thanks Eddy. I have another flake from reducing the original I think I can get a nice point from. Not sure when I’ll get a chance to try it, but I will try to post it here when I do.

Wizardgoat gave me some Glass Butte obsidian to try but my hands wouldn't take it. An hour of knapping and two days of regretting it. Wish I'd tried this stuff earlier in my life. I think yours looks good.

PS I like the Bushes Beans insert ;D Do you get a commission for that ;) ;)

Russ:
hey BJ, Could i get a picture of your tools?

Parnell:
That came out very nice.  Nice shape and stem.

Thanks DC. I always wear gloves now. It’s a little clumsy, but your right. This is really hard on your hands. Especially the arthritis in my thumb. The gloves do help.

Was wondering if anyone would notice the Bushes Beans. I’m hoping to be harvesting some Navy Beans that quite possibly will be going in one of those cans very soon. ;) No Commision though.lol.
Funny side note. I showed my sugar beet seed dealer two magazine articles with full page pictures while I was wearing their sugar beet seed companies hat. I teased maybe I could get a sponsor.lol. Still waiting to hear from main office.

Russell I will try to remember to get some pictures of them.

Thanks Steve. I like the shape of the stem to. I just made kind of a diamond shaped point. Then put kind of a diamond shaped stem on it.
