You are one heck of a knapper.

Gus that's hilarious.   I've been cooking for 41 years & wishing for an Ah Ha moment like yours.

I already said it once, but it bears repeating.  You are raising a technical process, to the level of art form.  I don't make comments often on others work, but this is about the third or fourth time you have posted what is simply amazing work. 
As far as stone goes.  I would be willing to send you some.  My son just came home earlier this year for the second time.  Nothing fancy.  Just raw or mildly heat treated Burlington.

Much appreciated man I appreciate your kind words. I am sure if goes the same with everyone else crafting things here on this forum, all the encouragement and advice from others pushes us to continue to improve and do our best. Its a really cool community we have here. I should be set on rock for the rest of my deployment with what is in the mail currently. Thank you for the generous offer. Take care of yourself !

You are welcome!  When I finish one of those, i will be happy, much less producing them like an assembly line! 
I typed a further response, and then after reading it, erased it.  Was getting to be too close to politics to post!  Keep your head down.
