Here's a set I made today for Jeff Utley. Some of his Tallahatta, some of my Sonora, Cowboys G-town and Jesses Flint river. They all weigh around 150 grains give or take a little.

-
Might as well eh :) spring will be here in 3 or 4 months and I will be able to knap again 8)
-
WOW :o :o I can't wait to get those on some shafts and get 'em bloody! ;D
-
I'd move. I swear I would. I don't mind snow and cold weather, but MONTHS and MONTHS of it is for the eskimos. You ever wonder why ya don't find many artifacts up there???? It's because even the cavemen where smart enough to get the heck out of there! No offense to Jamie ;D
-
Shannon...how and the world do you get them all to look alike and size the same like that?? Man you are a talented Individual...I swear.
-

-

Shannon
That is impressive. Not only is the knapping beautiful, but to get them all weight matched as well. That is some fine work.
-
Fine lookin' ammo, Shannon. That's the same kind of hunting points I usually make. NC law is no barbs, so I make shallow side-notches and fill them with the hafting sinew.
-
Same law here in Ky too, Steve. I make 'em that style because I can't think of an easier, more effective design. Eddie don't even notch points, but I like to notch them just deep enough to recess the sinew. Any deeper just weakens the point I think.
-
Those ought to get the job done and in style!
-
none taken. ;D plus this is ct. one day its 2 degrees and the next its 90. so ya just gotta wait and the weather will change. excellent work .

Wow those look really great. Flintknapping is still a big mystery to me. I just make gravel when I try.
