65x55 swedis:
what kind of rocks are good for flintnapping? i know of flint and heard of glass but that is it any ideas?

cowboy:
glass will be a good teacher for you - as it is easy to find and knap. I'm not sure where you are but europe is supposed to have the best flint around - wish I could get some :).

cowboy:
Sorry, 65x55. Just noticed you were in Idaho. Not sure exactly what's up there but imagine you could find some obsidian. Free glass would be better to learn with though, a lot cheaper anyway :).

D. Tiller:
Someone likes Swedish Mausers! Me too! Wonderful  calibre and so under utilized here in the states.

65x55 swedis:
ya and i have one build off a mouser 94 action. and thank you cowboy for the information
