How bout them broads on the left?  I'm a fan of single bevel.  You make them too?  Remind me of mine,  oops, them ain't knapped, wrong forum.  ;D ;D

Those are regular old trade points made from band saw blade.  Here's the thread I posted when I made them, http://www.primitivearcher.com/smf/index.php/topic,25634.msg  I did not sharpen them single bevel.  I like single bevel too, but I find it harder to file sharpen single bevel in the field so I didn't do these that way.

I forgot to mention that I was planning on a much larger point last night, but snapped the spall in 1/3-2/3 pieces early on trying to thin it.
