A thin disaster

(1/1)

Muskyman:
Got one thinned down nicely and had a lot of size left. Got it shaped to a large arrowhead shape. Thinned it some more. Took it down to a pretty normal arrowhead size and started on my notches and disaster happened. Oh well, on to the next one.

Here it is before I shaped it into final size

Muskyman:
Here it is now

I guess I got too aggressive with my last notch. It kept stalling out on me

YosemiteBen:
it does happen. Keep an eye on your pressure points too.

Wolfmanjack:
Turn it into a Madison triangular point

Allyn T:
Notching is a tough nut to crack but you are doing well
