some fresh knapping.

(1/4) > >>

Ryan_Gill_HuntPrimitive:
thanks to some new tools from wolf watcher and some indirect influence and guidence from cowboy and some worthy stone from justin, my knapping has been taken to the next step.  thinner and longer and more precise.
these are made from the obsidian i got from Justin Snyder a few months back. very nice stone. i broke a couple heads in half while working them so i set it aside for a while. looks like the antler billets were the key i was missing. everything fell into place. that is some scary sharp stuff, Justin.
i knocked a long flake and was able to shave with it.  no cuts to my pinkies though ;)
hopefully more to come soon. thanks for looking- Ryan

  Those are some sharp looking points Ryan. Good, right tools do make a difference.
