  • 700th Point / Blade

    It's tough to get a good picture because this obsidian is so shiny. The blade is 7.5 inches long.

          I think that's one deserves a handle and perhaps even a nice sheath! 😉

                      I would love to see the progression in your prowess. Could you post pictures of your first point beside this last one?

                        lol OK you jokers here is Chip Mountain and my first ten points: I could probably make a thousand of those little arrow points from what is in Chip Mountain. However until I run out of rock I will only visit Chip Mountain to help it grow. Chip Mountain is two feet high and five feet across.

                          Thank you Ron.
                          You were good back then however I would place in the master category now.
