Title: Pine Tree
Post by: leapingbare on January 30, 2009, 01:11:03 pm

WOW i did it..  i think this is what a true pine tree looks like anyway.
 Gatta like the color in this one.. its some sort of jasper.
I have never spent more time on one point then did on this one. i been working on it off and on for 2 weeks lol. probably got 3+ hrs in it.

Thats a damn fine arrowhead,but I cant decide which would be worse feeling that point going in,or trying to pull it out?! A fine job!

That's a mighty nice Dalton, Jesse. :) Pine Tree is a corner notched point. daltons are one of my favorite point types, though. great chipping and a nice chunk of rock, you da man.
