More rock found
« on: August 12, 2021, 09:48:10 am »
I have been knapping but I haven't been having a ton of success. In the mean time I found some more rock yesterday on a job site and it was too tempting to pass up. I honestly didn't expect it to be any good but half of it was good quality and very pretty. I'm told from reliable sources including Marty(flintnappingtips) that it is Burlington chert. The stuff closest to the cortex is trash but the blue/grey and white parts are smooth and have a very nice tone when tapped. Enjoy

  • What do you despise? By this are you truly known.

That’s a nice load!!! I suggest heat treating it! It might make the cortex workable!
