That is pretty rock, and the chipping looks good too.

Nice looking point. The material has that Flintridge look to it.

Yep, Steve, I think that's some of the Flintridge I gave you. I've never seen Fl. Chert with that kind of color.

The picture on Facebook with all of the blood was more dramatic.

Nice point! Those serration look pretty wicked. If you aren't bleeding your not knapping. I keep bandaides, neosporin, and hydrogen peroxide all out on my bathroom counter since I started playing with obsidian.   
May my presence go unnoticed, may my shot be true, may the blood trail be short. Amen.
