            Hey Bret, That's a great Brazilian Agate point. I think that I should have cooked my Brazilian hotter. What temp do you use?

                    As a non knapper, I am curious how long it would take to make something as fine?

                      In total with cutting the slab from the rock, then cutting a preform from the from the slab, then grinding the preform to shape , then knapping it i would say 3 to 4 hours total, just a guess mind you i have never keep track of the real time invested .
