Thanks guys!

Notches, notches...  the Native Americans loved 'em.  Funny thing is, though, my favorite types are leaning more and more toward the un-notched and unfluted forms.

Wow! You have been busy. It's funny that most of the arrow heads for real arrows found in Florida are just simple triangle points or very shallow notched points.

Been working on any bows?

Eddie, yep, I've been working on lots of bows.  Yours too.   ;)  I'm in the process of building a "hot box".  Even with the dry climate here, it takes forever for wood to dry completely.

Thanks everyone for the comments.   ;D

Now don't go getting a swelled head , Patrick, but your work  is absolutely inspiring!  All of you regular posters here do  amazing work. I can now make a functional arrowhead ,(most of the time) thanks in no small part to the generosity of Knapper. And the knowledge shared by so many here on this site and locally.  Thank you all.

That's some great work there Patrick.

I had a look in my medicine bag the other day and surprise surprise I found a couple points I had tucked away in there.  Not as nice as what you make but plenty good for hunting

Zuma, I think I gave away that Pedernales.  I looked for it and can't find it.  Time to make another, I guess... ;D
Paul, I lost my phone, actually.  Not that I answer it much anyway. (HEE)  ;D Shoot me a message.
Xin, it's been a while since I've done a video, that's true.  Maybe after the summer...

Thanks for all the comments guys!  Much appreciated!
