Title: Best one yet
Post by: GooseGossett on August 04, 2012, 06:52:20 pm
Not sure what style this is (if you know please enlighten me).  I'm guessing 150-170 grains.  That might be my next purchase either a scale or a poster of point styles.

Those are some nice flake patterns. Looks like you turned the corner. As far as style I'd say 'huntin' point" :) What kind of rock id that?

If I knew what kind of rock it was I would tell you.  It came in the same batch from Northeast Oklahoma.  One of the kids that I took to summer camp found out that I made arrowheads and loaded my bag full of "mostly" knappable rocks without telling me.  He told me when we were getting off the bus returning from camp.  I thought my bag felt heavier when I was packing it up.
