Silas, I always enjoy seeing your work, and it is even more impressive knowing that it is entirely Abo.

Very Nice! Looks like it was a little "dry" on the one side but great work none the less.

I can't possibly addess everyone, but WOW! As a group, we all nailed this one and there were so many entries, all fantastic. We must be some sort of Hopewellian culture or something. Everyone mail me your points and I'll drive somewhere in the mid Mississippi and bury them all so that some day, some poor unspecting archeologist can find them and have his, or her, mind blown!

Here is my first Snyders point.  I have only been knapping since the end of August, so it took me three tries to get one.  This one has a lot of problems, but I am pretty happy with it.

I think that quad tip photo is the one I posted asking if anyone had seen this. A few said they had. You ask.... Too easy? I don't have a clue how you go about getting a tip like that, so I don't think it would be too easy. I would love to see what others come up with.

Glis Glis, Not easy, most knappers on here work biface or 2 sides. The point you arre showing I believe the tip is 4 sided like a danish dagger handle. I only know of a few knappers who have accomplished  danish dagger type knapping. Jesse you out there, how about a little help with this one, Easy no way. Just my .02 worth. Bob

While tempting the trial and error involved (for myself) would most likely take longer than this month.
