That is pretty rock, and the chipping looks good too.

Nice looking point. The material has that Flintridge look to it.

Yep, Steve, I think that's some of the Flintridge I gave you. I've never seen Fl. Chert with that kind of color.

Nice point! Those serration look pretty wicked. If you aren't bleeding your not knapping. I keep bandaides, neosporin, and hydrogen peroxide all out on my bathroom counter since I started playing with obsidian.
