    Default Self made arrow, atatl, spear points, show them off!

    I made a customer some points for his arrows about 15 years ago. Saw something similar on *ahem* another forum and wanted to share with you all.

    I really like this one. I used an actual flint point (on the left) as a model.

    Nice. I've made an arrow head out of glass and have posted it before. On my phone so I can't bring it back up.

    Right now I'm working on a bow. Started with a piece of hickory and got it to a point where I need to begin the first stages of tillering. Wish I had took pictures of the whole process but I have none.
    What's so crazy about standing toe-to-toe saying I am?

    Maybe some pics of the finished product? I would like to see it...

    Sweet, I have never tried blacksmithing before so I could never do anything even close to that.

    Nice work,

    Billy
    Check me out on youtube. Thanks, Billy

    I made a spear point from an old 3/4 inch flat boring drill bit (no clue what they are called), but I'm at my grandparents house so no picture

    Here's a nice long Obsidian blade with a very nice W.A Sandalwood handle, and sinew . This one recently sold.

    Thanks mate. The Black Obsidian stuff is quite popular at the moment due to the popular TV series from Britain (I think) called "Game of Thrones". I sell as many as I can do. My Mookaite stuff moves pretty good too.

    Digging around in the shop the other day and I found some older points.
    I grouped them all together to share.
