Almost a year ago to the day, thanks in part to stobber, I began the journey into learning how to knap flint.
Here's one hobby not learned overnite ... or even in a month.
Anyway, not fantastic by any means, but here's a few points I've managed to fashion.

I'd thought about hafting one of my relic finds to an arrow but the risk of loosing it turned me back and it seems making my own stone points more in line with my desires anyway. :archer:
and here's a beauitiful clovis PaleoAleo of another site made and sent to me, so I know it CAN be done. :D
