Point lethality!

Jakesnyder:
I'm new to knapping and am wondering how I know if my points are good enough to hunt with? Thanks

Hawkdancer:
Safe way is to try to slice paper - not safe way is to slice your finger >:D (lol) (lol) :fp!

Russ:
I think paper wouldn’t work well with serrations… but i don’t know lol! I’d say if you can push the arrowhead through a piece of leather with ease, it’s sharp enough. Also look into your state laws! Some places don’t want you hunting Deer with small points

Allyn T:
I like the idea of pushing them through leather, I also think you could use one and try to slice up some raw meat see how it goes

Pat B:
I think a green hide would be a better test than a piece of leather.
