Awesome work Mr. Ron.

Thanks Kevin, That first one surprised me how beautiful the material is. I'll post the biface below. When the weather warms I can saw some of the bigger cores and do some work that is more artistic.

I had a feeling that one was going to make a nice bade.

This is the CTex biface that I used for that colorful Blade:

Nice to get out on these 70 deg. days right Ron except the pollen is already covering the windshields. I like first blade also Ron.

Ha Thanks Johnny, The snow banks are so high I can't see over them but I think the sun is shining. I knapped until my feet froze in my insulated winter boots. Enjoy your early spring: No evidence of it here.

Just can’t say it enough how nice those are

Thanks Gary, I think that Agate Basin style blade is special because of the lithic. I just love the earth colors and freckles.

Very nice! How long did it take to make each one?

[Ron Kelley]

Thanks Vic, These took about an hour each.
