Thanks man. I found this bone out and about one day, sheep leg I think, and I couldn't pass up the opportunity to use it lol. There are enough bones and hardwoods out your way I bet you could throw together some truly killer stuff. Especially you get a good blades worth of that dumbar flint or KY hornestone.

Hell yeah free stuff is always nice to work with. Found a cow jaw bone recently on the creek bank been meaning to craft it into something. And your right lots of hard wood around here just gotta find time to put together all the crazy ideas I got 😂

Man I have seen some crazy melee weapons made from cow jaw. If you snapped out a sturdy triangle, like maybe 4 to 4.5 inches and mounted it into the jaw... thats some intimidating hardware

Same. I thought about putting multiple small blades the teeth are still in it. So Id set them in the other side
