Post by: Ryan_Gill_HuntPrimitive on December 29, 2010, 03:20:36 pm

I havent been around to post much here lately and i feel bad i abandoned you all so i wanted to post some pics of the knives i have put together lately lots of various stone types and shapes.   hopefully i can get some more stuff made before too long.  when i get the cabin finished out this summer i hope to be back at knapping and such full swing

Very Nice ! . Where's the yellowstone agate blade ? ....Ha ! !   Looks like some Glass Buttes there.  Have you tried any of that high grade from Ringing rocks ?  There is a smoke/clear quartz quarry up by the Ringing rocks also.  '  Frank
