Title: how much would be worth some wood?
Post by: fishfinder401 on November 08, 2011, 11:44:52 pm

i have finally acquired the materials and plan to make a good forge for making bodkin points and the like and i was wondering how many hand forged bodkin points people would think worth trading for a stave of wood, any kind( i have not gotten good enough to trade any yet, i am just curious for later this winter once i get better)
thanks

Working a tree to get a stave is work,but forging is more complicated.  So, for me it would depend on the type of wood,and cost of shipping. And dont limit yourself to just points,knives,spears,hawks,(ooh,I've always wanted a froe) hand forged anything is cool.  The people people on this site are trade worthy folks,so I'm sure you'll find a good trade time come.
