If this old world last a few thousand years someone is going to be very confused in my area LOL. I had a cousin who could make arrowheads. As a prank my dad and I found a large 250 - 300 pound Quartz rock and delivered it to his front porch while he was at work. Within a few months he made some real great points from it. The three of us used to go out hunting arrowheads together. I still have my dads collection.

I've watched arrow heads being knapped. I tried it myself, and accomplished nothing but dinged and nicked fingers. I'd have had to be a forager rather than a hunter, I think.

Same here LOL. Only arrows I've ever made have been from pre cut wooden shafts and store bought fletching etc.
