1st day of knappin
« on: October 15, 2010, 08:03:16 pm »
Here are the successful attempts of my first day of knapping in several weeks. The wind was blowin so bad today, but I stuck it out and here is my sad attempts. I also got a tomahawk head done, but don't want to post it till it's done. Maybe tomorrow.

Life is not a journey to the grave with the intentions of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body. But rather to slide in sideways, thoroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming....WOW WHAT A RIDE!!
