I'm always blown away by your direct percussion abilities to hit long flakes off thin edges. I've chickened out and switched to an indirect technique, long before I even attempt it on edges that thin, and there you are still banging them off with ease. Impressive.
This one didn’t go as easy as it should but it’s nice to knock the dust of the billets once in a while to keep from getting too rusty. Hope you’re good Chuck
I Appreciate your archaeological approach to knapping. Thank you

Most of the 3"-6" spalls actually come between 5"-7" and even 8" occasionally. The material is usually flawless.
You have fair quality these days
Good!
Great skill ,information and insights thank you!
Thanks Tony
I am one of those guys who are extra tidy lmao
Why even use antler. Stone seems to work great
Getting thin edges long stuff w percussion hammerstone on dacite is very difficult and tends to crush i
