Anthony was kind enough to collect some great Genuine Flint Knappings for me while he was visiting in Texas, he tried like the dickens' to find me an arrow head but was unsuccesful :(:( Maybe next time .. ;)... These are some great pieces ... I already have them displayed in my computer room for everyone that visits to enjoy ... Thanks Anthony I really appreciate the gift they are awsome ... :cool::)

You are very welcome Luke. I was thinking of you as I was hunting them. Sorry I could not find you a arrow head, if I did it was yours.

I did a lot of walking, kicking up rocks, flipping logs and anything that I could, looking for arrowheads and scorpions too. Last March when Joe and I were down in West Texas for Rios, in the Trans Pecos area( Iraan) we found 4 arrow heads. With Joe finding the best one. This flint is from the Hill country of Texas, Harper to be exact. I now what to look for since then. You can tell those are for real because of the opposite chipping on both sides with intent to make an edge. Nature is a great engineer, but nature rarely makes something so symmetrical. If you get a knapper, you can knapp your own arrowheads and make your own arrows to get that real primitive stuff going. There is an article in this months Bowhunter magazine about a hunter who made his own bow, arrows and arrowheads and took a turkey with it..cool stuff.

Glad I was able to get you something.

Enjoy them and you are still on the list;).
