Work points
Allyn T:
I've been on a really slow job 12 hours a day with long breaks so I have had a lot of time this week to do some flintknapping. Here are a couple points I finished today.
Muskyman:
Really like the first one. Really cool looking rock. What is it?
12 hours with long breaks, I’d go nuts. I guess if I could Knapp during break it would be more tolerable. Like the other point too, just really like the stone on the first one.
bjrogg:
Those will definitely work.
That first one is really pretty. Both the material and the scare pattern.
You’re really making some nice points Allyn. It’s been fun watching your progress. Those look really sharp.

Allyn T:
The first one is knife river Flint, I really love that material. It's much tougher rock than it seems like it should be with how fine the material is. Thank you Brian, this hobbie has been my favorite thing to learn. I really hope one day we get to sit down together and beat some rock.
The second point didn't turn out the way I had envisioned but the stone worked really well.
bjrogg:
I’d like that too Allyn.
Maybe next year. I’d like to see the Silver Spring knap in. It should be a good time for me to get away if I can schedule it. Just happened to have doctors appointment we couldn’t cancel.
