Title: A Rainbow Blade
Post by: bjrogg on August 19, 2017, 02:01:43 pm
I got this piece of Rainbow Obsidian from Frank at Marshall. He gave me a deal on it. Someone had started working on it and had it messed up pretty good. A bunch of steps in it. I narrowed it up some and got to some good angles. I did have a dance point but decided to make a blade instead. I don't really dance anyway. Still gotta figure out what I'm gonna do for a handle.

That's  definitely another possibility Jeb. I've still got a couple pieces left from the stuff you gifted my brother and I.

Utah if I can make someone want to break some stone, that's a great feeling. Thanks for the compliment and show us what you come up with.
