Wow, I think you might have the world record for most Fraser River Jade celts/adzes found. I have a couple of them I've bought over the years, a buddy found one while fishing, and that started it for me.
Here's my biggest, all the rest are little dinky ones. Nothing compares to a personal find, but figured you might appreciate it more than most people.
I have not known number nine by anything other than a chisel I could be wrong?
For working on cedar trees and taking planks off I believe? And possibly for working in a dugout canoe.
Thanks Mac I either have that one or loaned it out quite a few years ago and didn't get it back. I would have to check in my library but I have read it. Excellent book
I really like Hillary Stewart's books. When I go to used bookstores I always look for them.
Hey unclemac, here is one by Hillary. I know there are more, but it's the only one I could find. Others packed away. And a couple of others I like. Not PNW but good.
