Very cool, is next on my list, make some flint tips. Too bad they cant be shoot often for testing, unless taking a shot at a deer or something.

Flint is a poor arrowhead unless you hit flesh, even hitting a bone can break a flint head and if you miss the animal and the arrow hits a tree stump or a rock you're in trouble,but they are sharper than any other primitive head..Antler on the other hand is quite durable and you should be able to test it on hay bales quite a few times before you have a failure.
