That! Is some dang fine knapping! 8)
 For someone such as myself, who's just trying to learn percussion. A point like that dovetail, seems impossible :(  I can't imagine me ever making one like that.
 I like 'em all. But the Dalton and the Graham cave get my vote for the best two.

You've been busy-nice chippin'. What material is that little Dalton? Nice Scotty and Hardin, too.

Thanks guys.All the material is burlington, and jeff city chert. Mostly all cooked,but the clovis was from raw rock.

The lil dalton was a creek nodule, Jeff City chert,(most call it mozarkite, but mozarkite is found more north of here)and is very high grade.I have a creek that I pick up small nodules from,same creek where I found the scotty, and it is some very killer mat. Just wished it was bigger. ;)

The scotty was also a small nodule,I saved all the length on that piece.Never know what color you are gonna get once the skin is off. ;)
