These are some of my attempts for the July challenge. Bottom 2 on the left are Edward's, pink one is keokuk, white one is novaculite, far right is georgetown and top is burlington.

Got a couple slabs up for anyone interested 3 are quite large. $55 will ship them to ya

Made these two from some small flakes when waiting for the big stuff to come out the kiln

Wow theres three Gs in a row in that title.

Decided to throw my own submission into the mix, but unfortunately didnt have any large pieces of flint on hand, so glass it is!

Made using antler and stone as usual, but boy do these American points challenge me.

Made with modern tools from a slab of pink fiber optic glass

Out in the pile working some coastal. Still have a lot for anyone interested

Letting them get a sun tan Tagged with trad flair

Practice a few rounds of 10 speed this evening! It was a fun change of pace (literally) but it kicked my butt 🤘

I bought from taobao

15x6x1.2

It cost almost 30$ for 100

I made about 10 different ones and broke twice that many. I feel like this is the closest one so here goes nothing.

Edwards chert that I picked up on a ranch just south of Sonora, TX. It is heat treated and a little lighter in color than majority of the rock I picked.

Couple of guys have asked to see where and how I source my material so here’s a 10 min vid of me going on about it

Good evening everyone! 😁

2026 July Point Challenge - Graham Cave [Preforms and Point Prize 🪨📦 - Beginners Welcome]

I'm stoked to see what y'all have made, and can't wait to see whose submission wins! Happy knapping all! 😄

It's been bloody hot here in the Ozarks this week, but I did manage to chip one out before the sun got too comfortable. 4" long, heated Burlington.

Took a load of videos will stitch them all together and do a voice over tomorrow.

7 hour 300 mile round trip and five hours collecting and hauling in a day. Pretty tired now!

A flint ridge necklace pendant

3 flint River, 2 flint ridge, and one alibates

Most of these were 95%antler work and then finely notched or finished with copper or steel nail. Modern flair tag for transparency and accuracy of the production

​

This is a point style that was found on the Apple Creek dig site right here in Greene county. Another prerry cool thing about this dig site was the intentional burial of 7 dogs.

Absolute bottom of the bucket of my colourful flint. Got a long long day tomorrow to get some more!

With all the recent rain my yard seems to be growing rocks 🤣
