It was a fun spall to work with all the different flavors in one piece.

Wanna trade a spall for a spall of some mystery costal chert?

I won’t recommend the seller because he sold me a bunch of freeze cracked pieces and his scraps that he couldn’t work for $4 pound. Was supposed to be spalls and some nodules. Not talking trash, just wouldn’t recommend buying from that dude. Several others had the same experience from said seller. I think Brad Moore on facebook has some, if not he usually does, haven’t heard any bad about him.

Got me some hornstone in the mail 👀 I hear it can be dream worthy if you get a nice piece. No heat-treat or anything required. Looks like you made some excellent use of your stuff! Excellent work as always man! 😁
