     OK, I just got done with Seminole Wind, and now you pop up with this! >:(  You are supposed to show beginners stuff!  Not some modern museum pieces! >:(  What the heck is wrong with you.  Ok, yes, they are absolutely beautiful, and great craftsmanship, and all, but that is not the purpose of this site.  You are supposed to ship those things to me, and then post some beginners stuff on line.  Now try to remember that! >:(  And Mullet has to go and encourage you to boot! :P Must have been that bad batch of Bar B Que sauce I gave him at the primitive shoot.  Dang boy, those are some kinda nice!  Love that nice primo shiny stuff!

Sorry guys, But I couldn't let Elijah post those Gunthers (which are awesome)  and  not have some kind of comeback.

I am glad you all like that.
I would post some beginner stuff but that was so long ago, didn't have camera's back then.

Very nice man ! perfect flaking scars ! Man I gotta learn how to flute points next, do you use indirect percussion or a jig. I am gonna try some indirect fluting when I get home.

Real nice looking points caveman, you guys are inspiring me to get off my butt, find some rock, and start the long road to learning how to knap.

Steve,
I thought you may have been lost in a Macungie snow storm.
Nice to see Burns has a modern point named after him.
Me and the Florida boys are all tanned up.
LOL nice spear points, Zuma
