Positively timeless instruction. Thanks for expanding my knowledge of the craft that i learned from books. You really helped my break out of the novice leval. Production of and using my own tools for archery hunting big game, has been a big bucket list crossoff for me. P.S. love that Texas chert.

Thanks, glad you found it useful. I also hunted with my points back in the day, made my own bows and arrows, so much more rewarding hunting abo. And yeah, gotta love Texas chert, nothing fancy about it, just good basic rock that gets the job done.

what is the rock that you scrape it with from time to time? looks like you are marking it for some unknown reason? this is my first attempt to learn this skill.

Jim, are you able to make several tips the same size, shape, and weight? I think most modern broadheads range form 130 to 150 grains for hunting big game. Does the type and hardness of the rock used make the tips different weights? thx

Is that a whitetail deer antler or something else like moose that you are using?

@Dancerpro1 Yes, I have used both flint and obsidian arrowheads on arrows and atlatl spears. They work very well. Chert or flint points tend to survive missed shots a bit better.

I wonder the same thing I think he uses the beam part closer to the base

@kyletango Yes, it is a section of whitetail deer antler sectioned into a thin strip from the main beam, not a tine. As the antler wears down the cordage or string wrap securing it to the wood handle can be removed and the antler can be moved out a bit. These antler sections last a long time and work well. A similar pressure flaker was found in a cave. ...

@Wertak68 Interesting! I did not know of the Yahi flakers. I'm guessing they probabIy used antler flakers as well. I guess I would not call any tool using steel abo but of course it is acceptable. The antler flakers do work well and in some ways better than steel but mostly is is just personal preference....

Yes, numerous broadheads can easily be made to the same shape, size and weight. No doubt many cultures made their points to specific size requirements for the spear or arrow they intended to use it on. I used my arrows for hunting many years ago and weighed them so each would fly accuratley.....jim

I know almost nothing about napping.....are they really sharp like a modern point?
@paleomanjim
@paleomanjim 9 жыл бұрын
bwfreel The sharpness varies depending on the quality of the stone and the skill of the knapper. Obsidian points can be sharper than modern broadheads. Most stone points are not as sharp, but they still have good penetration comparable with steel points.

Jeff Bodean Sorry, I stopped selling points a couple years ago. For me it is more enjoyable to keep it at the hobby level, it was starting to feel like a job!
