Title: new stuff and junk...
Post by: bowmo on August 27, 2008, 09:32:49 pm

Few that I've knocked out somewhat recently. Obsidian blades from slabs, I have been meaning to wrap that knife with sinew for a couple months now. Laaazy... The one group of heads is some Burlington and one from mystery stone all from spalls. Some obsidian heads from spalls. Some good mahogany in there. Some glass points from slabs and a half finished glass blade.

Yeah those are nice.   James Parker told me he used to take a bunch of those bigger lollipops, and cook em down to a liquid then dig a hole, line it with a trash bag, pour the liquid in and let it cool.  Then he would knap the cooled mass.  Now that's the sign of a knapping addiction ;D

Ya I think when you reach the point that you would rather try to flake candy over eating it...you have a problem.

Hi, my name is Daniel and I have been addicted to knapping for 9 years now.
