quartz broadheads?

<< < (2/2)

jamie:
quartz is one of my favorite local stones for wood working, tanning , scraping etc. incredibly sharp edges. we have a clear variety that was used a lot in the north east. billy im gonna give your advice a try cause most of my attempts at points are less than satisfactory.peace

Hillbilly:
Yep, wood or soooofffffttt gritty hammerstones are the only way to go. Billy, try dogwood or persimmon, much better and a lot more durable than osage or hickory. Live oak works pretty good.
