3¼” Lanceolate Point from Greg’s S. Mich. Chert

[Ron Kelley]

I didn't lose any length but I did remove more material than I intended.
Still I believe this would be a very efficient dart point.
I hope to get more points and will include the spall or core:

That turned out nice. That one looks like it is authentic ..

[Ron Kelley]

Thanks Joe, It's not too artistic but it is fun to get one that look like the old boys did it.

That does look pretty ancient. You managed to get it thin even though it wasn’t a slab. Very nice.👍

[Ron Kelley]

Thanks Caleb, When I started flaking this one I thought it would be a wider point. Getting it thin enough is why I ended up with a rather narrow lanceolate point.

Wow! I would have thought you couldn't get all of that out of that nasty, lumpy chunk of chert. You got serious skills Ron, way to go!

[Ron Kelley]

Thanks Greg, That piece is pretty good chert.

[Levi Caldwell]

Doesn't look like the easiest knapping stone but you done a great job on it Ron!

[Ron Kelley]

Thanks Levi, It was a very irregular piece but it is pretty good chert.

[Hoss]

nice work Ron
