stone tool, edge holding ability

<< < (2/2)

jamie:
glass style points, as well as chert, have a tendency to break easier after a rib hit but it creates an incredibly damaging edge that is now stuck in the chest of an animal. as the animal runs it is tearing itself up inside. a well placed shot with a stone point whether its glasss obsidian or chert do more damage than any steel point made. peace

D. Tiller:
Do what I like to do. Haft a bunch of them to foreshafts. Then you have reloads for your arrowshafts. Check your state laws first though. This may be illegal to hunt with. But from what I hear on hog hunting anything goes in TX! Can you chime in on this one Pual?
